Keeping Children Safe: An Introduction

This is a half day basic awareness course for those working with children and young people.

Keeping Children Safe Training is delivered by accredited trainers with experience of safeguarding issues.

This course covers:

• legal and policy context of safeguarding children;
• what abuse is and what we know about abuse;
• procedures for reporting concerns; and
• relevance of code of behaviour for staff/volunteers e.g. e-safety issues.
