Safeguarding Training
Safeguarding children is an important part of school life and with the Ofsted requirements for safeguarding training all schools will need to be able to provide evidence of this training.
Mana Education is able to offer you access to a free, online Safeguarding Basic Awareness Course.
This training package is aimed at individuals in organisations and voluntary groups who work with children and young people, families or adults who may be parents and/or carers, to give a basic awareness of Safeguarding issues.
Depending on your role, this may be the only level of training you need, although some people will need further training. It is recommended that you repeat this course every year. The content will be updated as necessary to take into account of local and national policy changes.
Please allow up to an hour for this course.
Cyber Security
Cyber Security training is now compulsory to work in schools.
