Safeguarding Policy


Tiger Martial Arts is fully committed to safeguarding the welfare of children and young people.


Each Tiger Martial Arts club is run by an independent local instructor, who is the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for their clubs - you can find your club's DSL below. Tiger Alliance Ltd provides safeguarding guidance to every club.

As part of this commitment, all staff that come into schools are ID checked and rigorously vetted; a process that includes the use of enhanced DBS disclosures.

We hereby confirm that all of our employees that visit schools on a regular basis have been subjected to all relevant checks and courses including:
- Enhanced DBS
- All Relevant Barred List & Disqualification Checks
- Child Protection & Prevent Training
- First Aid Training

All staff are made aware of safeguarding requirements through policy, procedure & training. The personnel & payroll database includes addresses, dates of birth, start dates & dates of when the relevant checks have been carried out. Verification of identity, permission to work in the UK, medical checks and the childcare disqualification checks are all carried out as part of our process.

Details are securely stored in accordance with DBS protocol, and are not disclosed to third parties. As per Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance, schools should seek this statement from any partner organisations as written confirmation that the relevant checks have been done.

If you have any concerns regarding whether an individual is a genuine Tiger Martial Arts employee, or have any questions regarding our Safeguarding Policy, then please do not hesitate to contact us directly via safeguarding@tigermartialartsclub.com or 07921855900.

If you're worried about a child

  • If a child is in immediate danger, call 999.
  • Otherwise, contact your local council's children's services, or the NSPCC on 0808 800 5000.
  • Please also let the club's Designated Safeguarding Lead know - find your club's DSL below.

If your concern is about a club's instructor or Designated Safeguarding Lead themselves, please contact the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) for your council directly.
