This absolutely essential course aims to provide participants with a working knowledge of child protection and safeguarding, and to act as a foundation and a springboard for further learning about the complexity of these issues. I always receive excellent feedback for this course, which aims to be engaging, practical and accessible to anyone who works with children and families.
