It is crucial to create a culture of safer recruitment that includes the implementation of a
recruitment procedure to help eliminate or identify people who might pose a safeguarding or
welfare threat. Within the Children’s Act 2004 the expectation is that provisions fulfil their
statutory safeguarding obligations to keep children safe, of which Safer Recruitment is an
integral part.
Our courses are delivered by an accredited trainer from the Safer Recruitment
Consortium, which is certificated and covers:
All members of the Senior Leadership Team, the Designated Safeguarding Team and anyone involved in recruitment, interviewing, induction or management of staff.

Huge impact, I feel a lot more confident on how to recruit with safeguarding in mind. Amazing presentation and engagement. It’s my second course with Nicole and I knew it would be brilliant even before she started.
