Protection of Children
A core course for anyone working with children, in a position to support and oversee their safety.
Protecting the Future
It is thought that 1 in 5 children experience some form of abuse before they reach 16, every year in the UK. Abuse can occur in many forms, some of which are subtle and easily overlooked. This course will help staff understand their role in the chain of protection, how to spot signs of abuse and how to correctly handle situations when abuse is suspected.
