This is a two part course taking place on 25th and 26th March, 2025. It will take place Live over Zoom. The duration of each course date is 3 hours including short breaks.

This course is for those acting as Safeguarding Lead in their organisation or setting. Some prior knowledge of safeguarding is essential. If you do not have this we would recommend attending our Introduction to Safeguarding and Child Protection course first.

• Make appropriate referral decisions
• Understand key issues around record keeping, sharing information and confidentiality
• Put together a safeguarding action plan for your role and organisation
