Schools and education providers are under increased pressure during the pandemic and continue to face complex challenges in delivering their usual education and safeguarding provisions.  

 To support you, we have summarised and created a safeguarding checklist based on the recent DfE safeguarding guidance.  

You should use this checklist to ensure you continue to support children and young people during the pandemic. Given the current circumstances, it remains vital that the appropriate safeguarding and child protection frameworks can be adapted and maintained.
