Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSiE) states all staff working with children should receive appropriate safeguarding and child protection training from induction and be regularly updated.

This on-demand course will help frontline workers to understand their responsibilities and offers a fully comprehensive approach to ever-changing safeguarding and child protection challenges.

Incorporates guidance from part 1, part 5 and Annex B of KCSiE, Working Together to Safeguard Children and the latest targeted best practice guidance.

This course is designed to engage all learning styles, using embedded videos and scenario-based workshops that encourage interaction, collaboration, and application to real roles.

Recorded yet interactive, the session includes built-in pause points and practical activities, helping staff remain engaged, reflective, and active throughout.

Perfectly suited to busy school life, the on-demand format enables your DSL to deliver training internally, ensuring those unable to attend the live session, as well as new starters, receive consistent and timely safeguarding training.

High-quality and practical, this training empowers staff and volunteers to confidently fulfil their safeguarding responsibilities and contribute to a strong, safe, and effective safeguarding culture.

  • How to identify children who may need early help and what steps to take.

  • Encouraging ongoing vigilance and confidence to act on concerns about the practices or behaviour of other adults within the setting.
