Child Exploitation: Themed Safeguarding Set
Child Exploitation: Themed Safeguarding Set
When concerns about child exploitation arise, school safeguarding leads need clear, practical resources to train staff on recognising and responding to complex risks. This set provides safeguarding training materials on both child criminal exploitation (CCE) and child sexual exploitation (CSE), including county lines, serious violence and contextual safeguarding.
☑️ 3 safeguarding scenarios exploring CCE, CSE and initiation or hazing-type violence
☑️ 5 one‑minute guides on key exploitation risks, including county lines and serious youth violence
☑️ 1 safeguarding quiz to check staff understanding and spark discussion
Unlike a single‑session training bundle, this themed safeguarding set gives you a flexible bank of scenarios, quick reference guides and a realistic safeguarding quiz you can use across multiple staff meetings or briefings. It’s designed to help safeguarding leads deliver staff training on recognising and responding to child exploitation in both primary and secondary settings.

☑️ Quick quiz
The Child Criminal and Sexual Exploitation quiz document is a 10‑question, editable multiple‑choice safeguarding quiz designed to check staff knowledge of CCE and CSE.

The scenarios in this set are also available to purchase individually and as part of specific single‑issue safeguarding training bundles.
Who will find this resource useful?
This resource is designed for designated safeguarding leads, deputy DSLs, child protection leads and safeguarding coordinators who need practical materials to train staff on child exploitation, including both CCE and CSE. It supports anyone with responsibility for whole-school safeguarding to build staff confidence in recognising exploitation, responding to concerns and understanding contextual safeguarding.
Headteachers, senior leaders and trust safeguarding leads can also use this set to plan and evidence whole-school safeguarding CPD. The combination of scenarios, one‑minute guides and a safeguarding quiz makes it easy to integrate into staff meetings, briefings or strategic training plans focusing on child exploitation.
