Safeguarding at RWCMD

Keeping our community safe and well

At Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, the safety and wellbeing of our students is our top priority.


You can read about our approach to safeguarding in our policy here. We aim to 

•    provide a safe and supportive learning environment for children and adults at risk, where they can develop their full potential 
•    create a strong safeguarding culture within our organisation, so that parents and carers can be assured of the care their children receive 
•    ensure that our colleagues feel adequately informed and supported to take a confident, proactive part in sustaining the safeguarding culture within the organisation
