For safeguarding training and upskilling purposes, we’ve created some examples of common safeguarding scenarios, with practical advice about how to respond to help you keep children safe. Ideal for INSET training, utilise this safeguarding scenario on Youth Produced Sexual Imagery with your team to discuss what the current concerns are, immediate next steps, further action and what could be done differently. Every setting that works with or comes into contact with children will have different needs for safeguarding and child protection.
