It is crucial that all members of staff are fully aware of safe working practices. Not only do these help to keep pupils safe, but they also protect staff members. This unit focuses on how safeguarding responsibilities might affect staff.

Aims and outcomes

  • Clarify safe working practice guidelines and help staff comply to protect all pupils.
  • Understand the challenges and avoid potential misunderstandings: how to deal with some of the dilemmas faced by teachers.
  • Outline policies and procedures: show all staff what key policies are available and how to use them in real-life situations.
  • Clarify when whistle-blowing is appropriate: ensure all staff know when to report suspicious behaviour and how to deal with allegations against school staff.
