Gain a comprehensive understanding of your new statutory obligations during our webinar with Browne Jacobson safeguarding expert Dai Durbridge. During the one-hour session Dai will detail how you can ensure safeguarding standards remain high and compliant for the duration of these measures.
In this webinar we will cover:
- the key amendments introduced by the DfE;
- how you can disseminate the amends to your staff and test their ongoing understanding;
- what to do if you do not have designated safeguarding leads on site;
- how to manage your safeguarding obligations where you have staff from other schools on site; and
- the importance of amending your single central record.
This 60-minute webinar is free and suitable for individuals within an education setting who have a responsibility for the safeguarding of children and young people.
For any questions relating to this webinar, please contact Helen Chauhan, Sector Development Manager.
