Safeguarding
Types of Harm
County Lines
County Lines expert Peter Wilson retired from the Metropolitan Police Trident Command, kindly shared his expertise for these CPD videos which you can share with colleagues or watch together on inset days.
Gangs
LGfL's SafeguardED team met academic and expert Craig Pinkney and senior leaders at the Imperium Federation of SEMH schools to film a series of short practical advice videos for schools supporting communities with serious youth violence, gangs and knife crime.
Neglect
Neglect is often one of the less understood forms of abuse (physical, emotional, sexual and neglect) and can be very hard to identify, explore the resources, support and training we've created to support this topic.
Prevent
Designed with KCSIE, Ofsted and the Prevent duty guidance in mind, this page offers up to date Prevent training to support your whole school approach, quality-assured resources for safeguarding teams, staff, parents and carers, with guidance on risk assessment, policy and cross-curricular content to build resilience to extremism and promote critical thinking.
Child Sexual Exploitation
See how you can protect children of all ages against sexual predators tricking them into getting changed or undressed on camera by playing a ‘game’ or issuing a ‘challenge’ to see how fast they can get changed into different clothes or into a swimming costume.
Online Safety Principles
In online safety we always come back to some key principles which may help you reflect upon and review your policies and processes, and your educational approaches and materials.
Online Safety Audit
According to Keeping Children Safe in Education, “Schools and colleges should consider carrying out an annual review of their approach to online safety, supported by an annual risk assessment that considers and reflects the risks their children face.” LGfL has created a document to help you complete such an assessment.
