More than 90% of teachers said that safeguarding referrals have risen according to a survey of over 8,000 teachers and senior leaders1.
As the education landscape evolves, the expectations surrounding safeguarding continue to grow. Schools and academies must comply with the latest KCSiE update and face "return visits" from Ofsted for inadequate safeguarding judgments.
Navigating safeguarding requirements and issues can be a minefield, and with schools and academies facing an increasing number of duties and responsibilities, the need for a comprehensive safeguarding approach is more apparent than ever.
At Strictly Education, we understand the importance of safeguarding in the education sector which is why we have created a full Safeguarding Package that can be tailored to your needs.
