CES produce resources to allow schools to deliver their own annual safeguarding refresher to staff, advised to be delivered by the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) to remind staff they are the named safeguarding person(s). This comes in the form of a PowerPoint presentation and a video version, which are available under the 'Training - Annual Refresher Resources' section of the CES website. Alternatively, schools with an SLA with CES can book the annual safeguarding refresher as a school-based session to be delivered by a CES safeguarding consultant.
Schools who chose to deliver their own annual safeguarding refresher are entitled to an alternative training session to be delivered by a CES safeguarding consultant at any point across the academic year, free of charge. Alternative options include: -
- Online Safety for Staff (recommended by KCSIE to be completed annually) - code: SS014
- Effective Record Keeping - code: SS004
- Code of Conduct - code: SS008
- Anti-bullying KS1 - code: SPU001
- Anti-bullying KS2 - code: SPU002
- Anti-bullying KS3 - code: SPU003
- Anti-bullying KS4 - code: SPU004
