Safeguarding and child protection INSET pack 2024/25

Everything you need to deliver up-to-date, effective and compliant safeguarding and child protection training to all of your staff this September, including a PowerPoint with videos, facilitator notes, handouts and staff activity pack.

Our INSET pack has become a staple in thousands of schools’ INSET day. Every year, we update it with the latest KCSIE guidance, add new modules to support you with emerging safeguarding challenges, and refresh the design and format to keep your staff engaged.
