This is an online course - you must attend both days.

Overview​
This training supports the safer recruitment expectations detailed in Keeping Children Safe in Education, 2020 and the Trust’s Safer Recruitment Policy.  The course is nationally accredited by the Safer Recruitment Consortium.

The training will be delivered virtually but will include whole group and smaller group activities which will be facilitated by the trainers.

N.B. This training includes an activity using audio recordings which explore the motivators of offenders, which some delegates may find upsetting.  This section will be addressed sensitively and delegates may choose not to engage in this activity.  Confidential support will be available for any delegate following the sessions, if required.
