Contextual Safeguarding: Why is it important?

Safeguarding does not stop at the classroom door. This practical and thought-provoking webinar explores contextual safeguarding, focusing on how harm can occur in wider environments such as peer groups, neighbourhoods, online spaces and local communities, and what this means for education settings and professionals.

Designed for DSLs, deputies, senior leaders, governors and safeguarding teams, this session will help you understand how extra familial risks such as exploitation, serious violence, criminal activity and harmful peer dynamics can impact children’s safety and wellbeing. This webinar will be presented by Ella Savell-Boss and Beth Davies, Safeguarding Consultants at Ella Savell-Boss - Safeguarding.
