Aim
This one day training day is for organisation working
with or on behalf of children and young people, who need
to be vigilant in their recruitment and selection of
staff.
Safe
environments do not happen by accident. They are
purposefully built and carefully maintained. Safe
recruitment and selection processes are essential if
schools and care establishments are to attract best
staff and deter and reject those who may pose a risk to
children or who are unsuited to work with them.
The course
is designed to support the the DfES guidance
"Safeguarding Children an Safer Recruitment in
Education" and includes the new "Safeguarding Vulnerable
Groups Act 2008".
The training will help
schools demonstrate that they have effective recruitment
and selection processes in place that ensure learners
are both well-taught and protected, which Ofsted will
review through a self-evaluation form.
Why has this
training come about?
The report of the
independent Bichard Inquiry that was carried out
following the Soham murder case made a number of
recommendations for action by the Home Office,
the police, the Department for Children, Schools
and Families (formerly DfES) and other agencies.
Recommendation 16 of the report was that
headteachers and school governors should receive
training on how to ensure that interviews to
appoint staff reflect the importance of
safeguarding children.
Who should
attend ?
All staff
/ organisations who are involved in the recruitment and
selection of staff
