KCSIE says that relevant staff should be “confident of the processing conditions under the DPA 2018 and GDPR which allow them to store and share information for safeguarding purposes …”

This half day course is for Designated Safeguarding Leads and others with a responsibility to maintain child protection and safeguarding files.

Topics covered include:

• ensuring that staff understand how and when to make a record of their concerns
• the difference between a child protection file and pastoral / educational records
• what should be in a child protection file
• what KCSIE and the Data Protection Act 2018 say about retaining and sharing child protection records
• the main changes in statutory guidance ‘Information sharing: advice for safeguarding practitioners’ (DfE 2024) and how these will impact on existing multi-agency referral pathways

The training will be relevant to Designated staff regardless of whether they use a paper or digital system.

As this is a virtual training event you will require audio/visual capability i.e. desktop with webcam plus headphones and a microphone or laptop/device with microphone and camera.  Delegates will be required to have their camera on during the training.

Certificates will be emailed to participants following the completion of the training and receipt of a completed evaluation form.  To receive your certificate you must be in attendance for the whole event.
