Designated Safeguarding Leads contribute greatly to the safeguarding ethos of their school and should have a ‘complete safeguarding picture and be the most appropriate person to advise on the response to safeguarding concerns’. From point of concern through to referral, assessment and beyond, Advanced Safeguarding and Child Protection Training for Designated Safeguarding Leads provides them with the knowledge and skills required to fulfil their role. Using case studies and child safeguarding practice reviews, participants learn about best practice including managing confidentiality, information sharing, recording, whistleblowing, professional boundaries and managing professional disagreement.
