The safeguarding training materials are designed to cover the Autumn term and have been created from the most up-to-date version of the 2023 KCSIE. They work in conjunction with the training resources in the Safeguarding Training Pack - Spring Term and Safeguarding Training Pack - Summer Term, with each pack covering different child protection aspects, so it's perfect if you've already used (or intend to use) these two packs.

The safeguarding training pack has been carefully designed to weave the above safeguarding aspects together with the theory of spaced practice in mind. This means staff can revisit content across the term, ensuring that they deeply understand all of the topics covered in order to keep children safe.
Who?Designated safeguarding leads (DSLs), deputy safeguarding leads, safeguarding trainers or anyone else with responsibility for safeguarding training, such as a CPD co-ordinator, will find this pack invaluable. Headteachers and senior leaders can also use this pack to support their DSL and safeguarding team to deliver a robust safeguarding training offer to all staff and volunteers.
How long?Start as soon as you download the pack then read through the suggestions for use. From here, plot out which resources are going to best suit your school’s needs and go from there! If used in its entirety, the pack is designed to cover one full academic term. It can be spread across the year but it’s important to know that if you do this, your training will not cover all aspects of Part One of Keeping Children Safe in Education.
When?This pack has been designed for the Autumn term as it starts with looking at the 2023 KCSIE and the key updates such as filtering and monitoring. However, the pack could be used at any time in the year to begin a programme of safeguarding training in school. Our other safeguarding packs cover different aspects of child protection: child-on-child abuse and exploitation are covered in the Spring term pack while the Prevent duty, harmful practices and many of the issues described in Annex B of KCSIE, such as child abduction, cybercrime and young carers are covered in the Summer term pack.
Why?Paragraph 14 of Keeping Children Safe in Education states:
“In addition [to receiving safeguarding training at induction], all staff should receive safeguarding and child protection (including online safety) updates (for example, via email, e-bulletins, and staff meetings), as required, and at least annually, to continue to provide them with relevant skills and knowledge to safeguard children effectively.”
This is why we’ve designed such a comprehensive training pack. Rather than delivering a single large training session to staff where a long period of time can pass before safeguarding training is addressed again, this pack allows safeguarding leads to provide short, sharp bursts of incremental training that keeps staff knowledge fresh and puts safeguarding aspects at the forefront.
For monitoring and quality assurance purposes, offering a drip-feed approach to safeguarding training is a great way to show that you’re constantly preparing staff to act if a safeguarding issue does arise, ensuring pupils are kept safe from harm.

Reviews
Just what I needed - interesting and challenging scenarios, posters to send to staff, volunteers, governors etc. Means I can cover all bases and build a culture of safeguarding in my school. I hope the Spring pack will be out at some point?!
