The refresher DSL course is for senior and deputy Designated Lead Safeguarding leaders in schools, early years settings (within a primary school) and colleges who have previously attended a full designated safeguarding lead course and fulfils the statutory requirement for training every two years. The course is delivered by an accredited trainer and will enable you to be up to date with many of the pressing local and national safeguarding issues that affect our communities. It will update you on recent legislative requirements, enabling you to be up to date on both safeguarding matters but also on many of the changing complexities of safeguarding concerns for children and young people.
The refresher unit covers issues including:
legislative updates and new safeguarding requirements
contextual safeguarding;
county lines;

trafficking
local issues and changing context and more.
