PLEASE NOTE BOTH SESSIONS MUST BE ATTENDED, 28/5 AND 29/5!

This certificated training course is suitable for staff and volunteers who have regular and/or direct contact with children and young people (e.g. supervisor, leader, officer in charge).  It will assist staff and volunteers with meeting good practice standards in safeguarding children and young people.

It will cover:

• creating a safe, child centred environment; and
• code of behaviour for staff/volunteers and children/young people.

This training will be delivered in 2 parts:
