Free School Leadership Resources

This safeguarding training calendar is designed to help you plot safeguarding training topics across the school year to allow a drip-feed approach, rather than relying on only delivering safeguarding CPD in one session during September INSET. Designed from the latest Keeping Children Safe in Education, the training calendar offers suggestions of what you could cover in each term, including abuse, neglect, exploitation, child-on-child abuse, extremism and radicalisation, harmful practices, staff safeguarding duties and more.

While the safeguarding training topics are organised into terms, you can - and should - use calendar flexibly based on the unique needs of your pupils and setting by ticking off when you've covered a certain theme. Should you wish to take a particular safeguarding issue further, helpful resources are linked into the calendar to deepen your safeguarding training offer for your staff. And best of all? This resource is free!
