This essential training for all designated safeguarding leads will refresh your knowledge of how to respond to and refer concerns and disclosures of abuse. It outlines the statutory safeguarding responsibilities of schools and academies in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education, as well as Ofsted expectations and recognised good practice. The training pays particular focus to the lessons learnt for educational settings from Safeguarding Child Practice Reviews, and offers opportunities to learn more about the importance of professional curiosity. This course will leave you well placed to confidently manage safeguarding arrangements in an education setting and contribute effectively to the child protection process.
Delivered in person, you will have the opportunity to network with colleagues from other educational settings throughout this training course, further enhancing your own CPD and providing opportunity for critical reflection.
