Welcome

Welcome to Bradford Schools and Colleges of Sanctuary. We are part of a national network of over 400 schools and colleges who are all committed to creating a culture of welcome and inclusion for refugees and people seeking asylum. We are passionate about supporting and equipping schools and colleges across the Bradford District to support pupil seeking sanctuary effectively and creating cultures of welcome and compassion. We hope you find the news, information, and resources on our pages both helpful and inspiring.

Being recognised as a School of Sanctuary means Bradford schools have shown a clear commitment to making sure every child and family feels welcomed, safe, and supported to thrive. Safeguarding is our highest priority.The Schools of Sanctuary programme is not political — it simply helps schools to understand why people seek safety and to lead with kindness and humanity.
We are proud to be a city of schools where every child feels safe, where individual needs are understood, and where pupils are equipped to be kind and thoughtful members of our community
