Child protection and safeguarding is vital for schools to get right first time.

The statutory guidance Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) is subject to regular updates, so it’s important for schools to familiarise themselves with the latest guidance to ensure that your policies and practices reflect the most up to date statutory requirements.

To help schools achieve this, the education team at Forbes has developed a Schools and Colleges Safeguarding Package, which includes:

- Child protection and Safeguarding policy updated in line with current KCSIE statutory guidance
- Review or preparation of hire facilities agreement to ensure compliance with safeguarding obligations
- Guidance on making a Serious Incident Report
- Online training session in respect of responding to a safeguarding incident

The team is also delivering a free webinar, providing a round-up of the key changes in KCSIE 2026.

The 30-minute session will be ideal for School Leadership Teams, Designated Safeguarding Leads, School Business Managers, Governance Leads and anyone responsible for reviewing or updating child protection policies.
