ALL adults who interact with students have a responsibility to safeguard and promote their welfare. Under the Children Act 2004, organisations are required to protect the well-being of children and young people, ensuring that staff are competent, confident, and fully aware of safe practices when working with children.

The course considers low-level concern scenarios, and why and how these should be recognised and addressed.
