Safeguarding, Child Protection and Access to Pastoral Care
The College aims to safeguard and promote the welfare of all its pupils, protect them from harm and abuse and to offer the support required to enable them to thrive. Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is the responsibility of all members of the community. All pupils, staff and parents, should raise any safeguarding concerns immediately with the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) or deputies. The Pastoral & Safeguarding Hub is located on the ground floor of the Medawar Centre.
DSL: Mrs Kane ckane@marlboroughcollege.org/07394 564897
Bullying is repeated, intentional, unprovoked, malicious actions or words, either directly or via other media, which cause distress, making others feel unhappy and insecure.
Bullying is often motivated by prejudice against particular groups, for example, on grounds of race, religion, culture, sex, gender, sexual orientation, special educational needs, or disability or because a child is adopted or a carer. Bullying may occur directly or through cyber-technology.
All members of Marlborough College have the right to enjoy their lives free of bullying and harassment and are expected to treat others as they would hope to be treated themselves in an atmosphere of mutual respect. They are expected to do all they can to prevent bullying.
An individual who feels bullied or intimidated has the right to expect any senior member of the College – pupil, Prefect, Wellbeing Ambassador, Head of House or member of staff – to listen and to act promptly and sensitively to deal with the problem.
Bullying will always be treated seriously and the school believes that to do nothing is to condone the bullying.

School Colours
Two kinds of sporting Colours exist to reward those who perform with credit in interschool sports.
First Team Colours: may be awarded to any member of the Open First team to acknowledge expertise, level of performance and commitment.
College Colours: may be awarded usually to Open First or Second team members (in the Upper Sixth) to acknowledge their standard of play, contribution and commitment during the course of a season.
First team Colours:
Badge – black and blue mitre with gold surround College Colours: Badge – black with blue mitre with silver surround
CCF Colours Boys:
CCF Colours Girls:
Lower School Colours Boys:
Maroon and navy tie – thick stripes
Badge – Maroon and navy stripes
Navy tie with blue and white spots
Lower School Colours Girls: Badge – navy and white quarters
Honours Awards
These are to recognise outstanding contribution to the life of the College in non-sporting areas –Music and Drama; Outreach and Charities. An Award is made to note performance at a very high level or a distinguished contribution over a period of time. They are normally, though not exclusively, reserved for members of the Upper Sixth.
Boys: Dark blue tie with gold mitres Girls: Badge with College crest
Music Lessons
Instrumental and singing lessons are published on Teams Calendar, on a timetable sent to Houses each weekend and in the Music Department.
You should always check this timetable for the time of your lesson(s) for the forthcoming week.
If you are in the Upper School you should arrange your lessons to coincide with Study Periods or free time in the afternoons.
If you are in the Lower School music lessons take priority over other lessons but not over examinations or school matches. It is your responsibility not to arrange a lesson which clashes with another commitment which you could reasonably have foreseen.
Music lessons take priority over games practices, but you should inform your music teacher if you are in a team and ask him/her to avoid these times, if possible.
If you have to miss an academic lesson or games practice in order to attend a music lesson you should alert the beak concerned as soon as you can.
You should make every effort to arrange your music lessons so that you do not miss a lesson in the same academic subject in any one term.
In the Lower School, if you play more than one instrument, you may take lessons in normal lesson time for only one of them.

Emergencies/Injuries Aide Memoire
For all situations outlined below, when the immediate accident has been dealt with: the pupil’s HM and the Medical Centre must be informed as soon as possible.
Subsequently an accident report form must be completed.
In the event of a clearly serious or life-threatening accident where it does not seem safe and reasonable to the first member of staff on the scene for the victim to be taken to the Medical Centre, the normal first-aid assessment of AIRWAY, BREATHING, CIRCULATION should be made and the victim should not be moved unless this is necessary to prevent further injury or deterioration.
• Help should be sought immediately as follows:
Summon the duty paramedic (07776 020486) for sports injuries, and/or
(a) Phone 999 and request an Ambulance.
Direct the ambulance to the main College entrance (SN8 1PA)
Phone Security (01672 892201) and tell them where to direct the crew
(b) Inform the Medical Centre. They will ensure medical details of the pupil are available where necessary, and inform the Medical Officer.
Nursing staff on duty in the Medical Centre will not normally be able to attend such accidents. The responsibility for summoning the Ambulance should lie with the senior member of staff at the site of the accident and not with the nurse in the Medical Centre.
HEAD INJURIES
Medical opinion is unanimous that any loss of consciousness whatsoever should oblige a player to leave the field and abandon that game. Minor degrees of concussion without loss of consciousness may be acceptable for further play, provided that the patient is not disorientated, has no headache, blurring of vision or amnesia. There is a rarer complication of a head injury in sport in that temporary recovery may follow a blow to the head only to be followed by a lucid interval and then by the onset of unconsciousness due to bleeding within the skull. This is an extremely dangerous condition. Any player suffering a knockout blow should therefore be observed during the following hours after an injury. The immediate management of a head injury in sport should be as follows:
If there is an impairment of consciousness i.e. brief loss of consciousness or a period of confusion or disorientation, then that player should be removed from the pitch.
1. In the rugby season the paramedic should be summoned. The player will be treated and observed for an appropriate period, either in the paramedic base or the Medical Centre. If no paramedic is available the player must always be accompanied to the Medical Centre. The patient will be admitted and observed for an appropriate period of time or transferred to Casualty as required.
2. Any period of unconsciousness will disqualify the individual from contact sports for at least three weeks. The strict protocol of assessment and graduated return to sporting activity, following a head injury must be followed.
Emergencies/Injuries Aide Memoire (continued)
NECK INJURIES
The neck is particularly vulnerable to injury because of its extreme mobility. It is especially vulnerable in contact sports such as rugby (a collapsed scrum or high tackle, for example) and the potential ramifications of such injury are very serious. It there is any suspicion of a significant neck injury then the following is essential:
1. First the game should stop, and the paramedic should be summoned.
2. The player should not be moved: if there is any doubt about a neck injury having occurred, leave the player where they are and keep them warm. The paramedic will assess the extent of the injury and if required an ambulance will be called. The neck may be immobilised by the paramedic using appropriate devices.
3. Where a neck injury occurs in any other context, a similarly careful approach is required. The patient should not be moved unless they are in immediate danger, or require resuscitation. In the event of moving the patient being unavoidable, neck stability should be maintained if at all possible. In such an instance, or that of a patient who is disorientated and unable to obey commands to remain still, then summon help as soon as possible.
OTHER INJURIES
When a player has sustained an injury which clearly requires medical attention and he/she is able to walk satisfactorily, either he/she will be handed over to the paramedic or the beak in charge of the situation must ensure that the player goes to the Medical Centre. The beak will need to provide necessary information about the circumstances of the injury. As soon as possible after the event it is the responsibility of the beak in charge of the game/session to complete an Sports Injury Form (available on Connect).
If a pupil has been injured in an away match, such that paramedic or Medical Centre treatment is required, he/she must be passed as ‘fit to travel’ by a competent medical person at the other school before return to Marlborough. The pupil’s HM should be informed as soon as possible. He/she must be escorted to the Medical Centre immediately on return to Marlborough. Where such injuries require hospital treatment at the other school, it is imperative that the Medical Centre be informed on return to Marlborough, as there will often by follow-up treatment required (such as outpatient fracture-clinic appointments).
FIRST AID/EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS
All beaks in charge of major games sports teams must have, or have access to, a medical bag for treating minor injuries. Beaks in charge of other sports will ensure that appropriate first aid measures are in place. All beaks must have a copy of the emergency telephone numbers. During the Michaelmas and Lent Terms there will always be a paramedic on duty for major games practices and fixtures. The paramedic has a College mobile phone and this number should be immediately accessible. Ideally, beaks should have a mobile phone to hand, or at least be clear where the nearest available telephone is. (The paramedic’s vehicle should always be prominently parked, and as a last resort a runner should be sent).
