Operation Encompass is an initiative enhances communication between the police and schools where a child is at risk from domestic abuse.
It is a process used to inform schools when the police have attended an incident of domestic violence or abuse, where domestic abuse incidents have occurred in the homes of their pupils since the previous school day.
The purpose of the information sharing is to ensure schools have more information to support safeguarding of children. By knowing that the child has had this experience, the school is in a better position to understand and be supportive of the child's needs and possible behaviours
Operation Encompass will complement existing safeguarding procedures.
