When it comes to safeguarding children, standing still is falling behind.

Our specialist teams monitor safeguarding news and alerts in real time. They gather feedback from our partners on the issues they face and capture the lessons emerging from local, national and international reviews of safeguarding practice.

All of our course content is subject to a robust quality assurance process, overseen and informed by our in-house counsel (the former Head of Legal at CEOP) and an editorial panel comprising local authority, education and other safeguarding professionals.

Focusing on contemporary practical issues placed in the context of young peoples lives, the content of each course is designed to help you develop your existing skills and abilities as well as to provide you with a credible insight into emerging trends and themes. If you work with children, young people or vulnerable adults we have a course that will both challenge, educate and empower you.

“Multi-agency discussions of scenarios were really interesting – there’s still a lot of misunderstandings amongst professionals. It was useful to dispel some myths.”

Safeguarding Partnership Manager

“Best course I’ve been on for a long time… the chance to ask challenging questions and learn from your experience was unmatched in any other training I’ve attended.”

Head Teacher

“The training was fantastic. It is one of the best training sessions that I have attended. It was very informative and relates directly to my area of work.”

Social Worker

“I liked the way you integrated case studies and procedures from our local area. You also signposted us to local support so we know where to go for relevant information.”

The pace of change in this digital world means safeguarding professionals who stand still, rapidly fall behind.

Whilst internet enabled technology provides challenges it also offers opportunities to communicate, work and learn together.”
