Safeguarding Training

Train staff on spotting the signs and indicators of sexual abuse with this flexible safeguarding training pack. With a ready-made presentation to deliver to staff, two accompanying safeguarding scenarios on sexual abuse, quiz questions, a discussion prompt and a one-minute guide to send and display, this whole pack works seamlessly to train staff in safeguarding and keeping children safe.

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!

👉Looking for more safeguarding support? We've got a wealth of resources, from training bundles on individual safeguarding issues and safeguarding scenarios, to full packs covering all your safeguarding CPD needs for the Autumn, Spring and Summer term, as well as KCSIE updates and Prevent Duty training, plus support for DSLs and safeguarding governors.

When abuse or neglect is an identified safeguarding concern, DSLs often need a bank of flexible training resources they can use in staff meetings, briefings or CPD sessions.

☑️ 6 safeguarding scenarios covering physical, emotional and sexual abuse plus neglect

When safeguarding risks are linked to a child’s home life, DSLs often need focused training materials they can draw on quickly to build staff awareness. This set provides safeguarding in the home training resources that help staff recognise and respond to domestic abuse, restrictive parenting, familial sexual abuse and wider home‑based vulnerabilities.

☑️ 3 safeguarding scenarios exploring domestic abuse, emotional abuse and familial sexual abuse
☑️ 5 one‑minute guides on key home‑linked safeguarding risks

It’s ideal for safeguarding CPD when concerns in the home environment are a priority and you need to build staff confidence across primary or secondary settings.

When bullying or prejudice-based behaviour is an active safeguarding concern, school safeguarding leads need practical resources they can use to build staff confidence quickly.

☑️ 3 one‑minute guides on child-on-child abuse and different bullying risks
