Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

We're now at the end of the Autumn Term and into the Christmas Season. Thank you for everything you've been doing this year to help keep children and young people safe.

And a special thank you from me to all the team here at Success In Schools (in alphabetical order!): Chaira, Emma, Joe, Kate and Matthew.

This is the last Safeguarding Briefing for 2023 - we'll be back again in early January 2024. 

Christmas is a time for happiness and sharing, but for many people this is not possible. We need to think of others and support and serve them where we can. Although that's important now, we must continue to do that throughout the year in our words and actions.

Let us hope and pray for a peaceful 2024 and work towards less division, hate and harm in our communities and across the world.

Andrew

IntoUniversity are currently looking for someone to take up an important role in their safeguarding team as a Safeguarding Manager.

Forthcoming Courses

Advanced Safeguarding for DSLs

This is a four-session course for DSLs over a full-day. The course is offered live and as a recorded replay. When the course is live, there are plenty of opportunities to contribute with observations, questions or answers. As a recording, the interactions from other people are included and feedback notes that this makes it feel like you are not on your own.

"I just wanted to say that I thought todays training was absolutely fantastic. By a mile it was the most engaging training I have done."

"I came to a session in Birmingham back in 2019 (the day after the GE I think) and it was superb. Today [online] was just as good, if not better. The use of video mixed with live speaking was excellent and goes way beyond what other safeguarding courses provide. You've been there and done it, and your openness with your own story is inspirational." 

LIVE ON LOCATION remember that you can book Andrew to visit your school, cluster or MAT to share his DSL course. Please contact us for details and bookings.

Next Advanced Safeguarding for DSLs Course (Online) Tuesday 16th January 2024 10am - 4pm Book Online

Remember that the on-demand course is always available and is regularly updated. Book Online

Whole School Safeguarding CPD Online Session for 2024

In this two and half hour online presentation aimed at staff in all roles, specialist safeguarding consultant, Andrew Hall, explores important aspects of safeguarding in schools including child protection, learning from case studies and the latest version of Keeping Children Safe in Education.

"In my excitement, I forgot to add our star rating to the Safeguarding training we have just watched. If we could, we would give it 10 stars! That was the best Safeguarding training we have ever had, thank you so much. Feedback from staff has, so far, been overwhelmingly positive…I can't thank you enough."

"I would like to extend my thanks to Andrew for his fantastic online training. It was filmed so well - almost as if he were here with us! We were kept engaged throughout and felt so well informed - a huge thank you. It was a real success, and we look forward to booking you again in the future - with the staff team saying it was the best safeguarding training they have ever had. We really appreciated Andrew's real-life storytelling and the way such sensitive information was shared - it was excellent training."
