SENSE Learning - Modern Slavery Statement

This Modern Slavery Statement is made accessible to all Parents, Students, Local Authorities, Schools and SENse Learning associates.

Person responsible for ensuring that these policies are implemented and reviewed in line with the review dates: Sophie Amos, Operational Director

Introduction & Purpose

This statement is the Modern Slavery Statement for SENse Learning, which will be followed and promoted by all members of the Organisation. This statement will be applied to all associates and every supplier in our supply chain.

Policy Principles & Values

SENse Learning is committed to improving our practices and procedures to combat slavery and human trafficking activities, we will do this by taking steps to ensure, as far as we are able to, that our supply chains are free from slavery and human trafficking.

Procedures

SENse Learning was established in 2019, and has since provided hundreds of children and young people with bespoke and holistic packages of education that supports them to re- engage with more formal education at a pace that works for them.

SENse Learning has a wide pool of associates, employees and suppliers who we utilise in our services.

Supply chains that are utilised by SENse Learning currently include, furniture and equipment, ICT hardware, agencies, catering and educational supplies. SENse Learning has considered which of its supply chains could be at a high risk of slavery or human trafficking.

Due Diligence

• As part of our efforts to identify the risk of slavery and human trafficking within our supply chains, we operate a risk-based approach to due diligence with new suppliers. This approach can include:

• Seeking out general information on any new supplier company and understanding their corporate structure.

• SENse Learning’s Finance Director will assess supplier financial stability by reviewing recent and previous company accounts.

• Ensuring suppliers are able to provide adequate assurances of their own commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking.

• Ensuring suppliers have the relevant health and safety policies and procedures.

Monitoring our effectiveness in combating slavery and human trafficking

SENse Learning will continue to monitor our effectiveness by responding immediately and reviewing any reports from employees or law enforcement agencies that indicate that a modern slavery or human trafficking practice has been identified within our supply chain.

SENse Learning is committed to ensuring our employees feel empowered and knowledgeable about modern slavery and human trafficking, we will continue to monitor our employees’ awareness of this and provide training where appropriate.

SENse Learning will continue to raise awareness of modern slavery and human trafficking across the organisation more broadly.
