3 1. Introduction 1.1 The Greenwood Academies Trust is committed to the protection and safety of its pupils, staff and all those who work within any of its settings. The Trust is committed to providing staff with the support and development they need to be able to ensure the highest standards of safeguarding so it is at the heart of its work, especially within each Academy. The provision of training throughout the Trust is seen as essential to achieve this. 1.2 All staff across the Trust will undertake safeguarding training appropriate to their role. This will include staff within the Central Team as well as Principals. Trust Board members will have appropriate training to enable them to understand their role and expectations as Trustees. 1.3 In terms of training children and young people themselves in matters of safeguarding, it is important that pupils of all ages know where to go for help, for themselves or others and/or how to make complaints about the way they may be being treated. This is a high priority for the Trust and staff will be creative and sensitive to how the day to day curriculum may allow such topics to be introduced and how appropriate and sensitive information can be made available as required. 1.4 This Safeguarding Curriculum sets out the requirements of training for the varied groups of staff across the Trust to ensure compliance with the high standards that safeguarding requires in terms of knowledge and competence. 2. Process of 2.1 Safeguarding training will be delivered through a blended approach with a mixture of face-to-face training and elearning. Face-to-face training will be delivered by appropriately trained staff who have the competence and experience of the subject. 2.2 Detailed records will be kept of staff participation in training in order to constantly review if they are up to date and it will be the responsibility of individual members of staff to also monitor their own training needs and to be pro-active in ensuring they are met through appropriate and timely training courses. 2.3 It will be especially important that refresher training is given a high priority to ensure on-going compatibility with new local and national safeguarding developments. 3. New Staff and Volunteer Induction 3.1 All new staff joining Greenwood Academies Trust, no matter where they work and in what role, will undertake a basic introduction to safeguarding as part of Induction. 3.2 The induction process will involve the new member of staff or volunteer meeting with the DSL for their setting to discuss the local arrangements for safeguarding. 3.3 During this meeting the new member of staff or volunteer will be issued with the following documents: GAT Safeguarding Practice Guidance; GAT Staff Code of Conduct; Keeping Children Safe in Education 2016 Part 1; and Title: Safeguarding Curriculum Page 3 of 28

4 GAT Safeguarding Induction Checklist 3.4 New staff and volunteers must then complete the elearning course titled Awareness of Child Abuse and Neglect - Foundation which can be booked through the Greenwood Learning Alliance. 3.5 The DSL will arrange to meet the new member of staff or volunteer after a period of 2 weeks to answer any questions that may have arisen from the elearning and to collect the completed GAT Safeguarding Induction Checklist. 4. for Designated Safeguarding Leads and Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads 4.1 DSLs and their deputies are responsible for making decisions about responding to reports of safeguarding concerns and have been given this role in accordance with the GAT Safeguarding Practice Guidance. 4.2 Keeping Children Safe in Education 2016 recognises that the DLS should undergo training regularly and the Trust insists that training is accessed annually. 4.3 The on-going professional development of DSLs and their deputies is a key priority for the Trust and they will released to attend training as appropriate with their LSCB. The Trust recognises that it is important that DSLs access training locally as well as through the Greenwood Learning Alliance and DSL Network. 4.4 The Trust will host two DSL Network events and an annual safeguarding conference through each academic year. DSLs are expected to attend a minimum of two events. It is expected that DSLs will make arrangements to share the information and learning from these events with their Principal and Deputy DSL(s). 5. Safeguarding for Children and Young People 5.1 The Greenwood Academies Trust acknowledges the importance of children and young people in all its Academies knowing where to go for help for themselves or others. Within each Academy staff will create a culture that allows them to be able to discuss relevant and appropriate safeguarding topics that provide healthy conclusions and provide clarity on where to go for help and support. 5.2 At all times, and in all appropriate teaching subjects within the curriculum, staff will ensure children and young people know who to talk to within and outside of the Academy should they have related concerns. 5.3 The Trust will, from time to time, give consideration to whether it will be appropriate to run campaigns or awareness raising workshops for children and young people on safeguarding themes which have a relevance to their day to day lives. 6. Lessons from Practice a learning organisation 6.1 All training at any level and with any group of staff will integrate lessons learned from both national and local cases. It will be important that training is made relevant to the work of the Trust both in reference to Trust policy and procedure and in sharing, anonymously, the types of learning from situations more likely to occur within Trust settings. Given its commitment to being a learning organisation, day to day lessons remain a key ingredient to improving standards. A register of lessons learned will be Title: Safeguarding Curriculum Page 4 of 28

Recording Outcomes 7.1 New Staff and Volunteer Induction At the end of the safeguarding induction process the DSL must collect the completed GAT Safeguarding Induction Checklist and record the outcomes locally. If there is any further follow-up this must also be actioned and recorded in reasonable time. 7.2 Annual Safeguarding Inset Following the annual inset training for safeguarding all staff must complete the GAT Safeguarding Evaluation Form and return it to the DSL. If there is any further follow-up this must also be actioned and recorded in reasonable time. 7.3 This is also a good opportunity to ensure all staff have access to the latest policies and guidance relating to safeguarding. The DSL will be responsible for issuing part 1 of the most recent Keeping Children Safe in Education document. Within 2 weeks of the document being issued DSLs must seek formal assurance that each member of staff has received a physical copy of the document, has read the document and that they understand it in relation to their role. 7.4 Greenwood Learning Alliance elearning The outcomes of elearning completed through the Greenwood Learning Alliance will be recorded on the elearning Learner Management System and reports will be sent to DSLs on a termly basis. 7.5 External and LSCB DSLs will need to keep a record of external training completed externally including certificates of completion.

Children don t only have access to technologies at home; ICT is embedded across the curriculum, so with such exposure children typically have a lot of confidence.

18 Safer Working Practices All Trust Staff Annual The starting point for this module is to look at why you need to undertake training on the protection of children and young people. All adults who come into contact with children in their work have a duty of care to safeguard and promote their welfare. Practitioners have a key role in shaping the futures of young people. The vast majority of adults working with young children act professionally to provide a safe and supportive environment. However, in this area of work, tensions and misunderstandings can occur; the answer is not to work in a bubble. We have learnt from many adults, they are inadequately informed about their responsibilities and, as a result, they may unintentionally avoid certain practices completely. This should not be the case and this module aims to outline clearly what behaviours are and are not acceptable.
