SAFEGUARDING FOR PROFESSIONALS | courses for individuals | EARLY YEARS
It is crucial to ensure that early years providers are creating a culture of safety that includes the implementation of a recruitment procedure to help eliminate or identify people who might pose a safeguarding or welfare threat.
With the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) reform, live from September 2025, providers and childminders are required to ensure they meet the statutory requirements regarding Safer Recruitment within their setting. This course will provide you with all the relevant updates, develop your knowledge and skills, to fulfil your statutory safeguarding obligations and keeping children safe.
Our courses are delivered by an accredited trainer from the Safer Recruitment Consortium, which is certificated and covers:
Senior Leadership Teams / Managers / Recruitment / Compliance / HR – anyone involved in the recruitment and management of staff in early years.
