It is a statutory requirement for anyone who works with children to have up-to-date knowledge of safeguarding policies, legislation and guidance so they can proactively focus on keeping them safe from harm and maintain the ability to act on any concerns about the safety and welfare of children and young people.
With easy-to-follow and interactive safeguarding refresher course materials, this is an excellent way to refresh an individual’s professional knowledge of child safeguarding.
This safeguarding level 2 refresher course uses immersive real-world scenarios to help professionals apply knowledge to everyday life. These real-world scenarios and the supporting case studies will enable learners to see how their training can apply to them in their role. A key aim of this training is to provide learners with a strong context to the training so they can easily relate to the situations presented to them within the training.
The refresher training allows learners to choose which areas they want to refresh their knowledge in. This helps to improve the learner experience as they study the modules best suited to their needs.
On completion of this course, learners will be able to:
- Apply the changes to practice made over the past three years to your work
- Identify different levels of harm and follow the appropriate safeguarding procedures
- Collect safeguarding children information from both a local and national context
Safeguarding Children Level 2 is underpinned by the principles of:
