For the academic year 2023-24 the Advanced Initial training courses will all be delivered face-to-face.

This course is also useful for pastoral and support staff with safeguarding responsibilities.
The course programme will consider legislation and practice guidance to understand the role of Designated Safeguarding Lead and deputy and to develop confidence to work in partnership with other agencies and professionals to support children and their families with safeguarding and child protection issues.
The course is free for maintained schools and academies. There is a charge for 'free' and independent school staff attending.
