Safeguarding & KCSIE Training for Schools

Teacher with parents and child in a school or trust.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and every member of staff needs to know what to look for and what to do. Keeping Children Safe in Education changes every year, and staff must be trained on the latest guidance. This training makes sure your whole team is confident, up to date, and clear on their duties.

Below, we explain what our safeguarding and KCSIE training involves, and how it helps you keep every child safe.

What Is Safeguarding & KCSIE Training for Schools?

It’s practical, up-to-date training that helps all staff meet their safeguarding responsibilities under the latest Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance. We cover recognising signs of abuse and neglect, the referral process, record-keeping, and the specific themes in the current KCSIE update.

We tailor it to your setting and your policies, so staff understand not just the guidance but exactly what to do in your school.

Who Is This Training For?

It’s designed for all education settings: maintained schools, academies, and multi-academy trusts, Alternative Provisions, and SEND Units/Hubs. It works for whole-school INSET, new staff induction, support staff, or governors. Trusts often run it across schools for a consistent standard.

Many schools ask for it at the start of the year to meet the requirement that all staff read and understand the latest KCSIE guidance.
