Are you confident that your safeguarding measures protect and support your most vulnerable learners?

Children with complex SEND profiles in mainstream schools face vulnerabilities that standard safeguarding policies don’t always cover. This webinar equips senior leaders and DSLs with the specialist insight to read complex behaviour, work past communication barriers, and make sure no child goes unheard.

We will explore:

  • How to understand each child's usual presentation so you can quickly spot subtle changes in behaviour, communication, or wellbeing.
  • How to help staff trust their informed instincts, navigate complex family contexts, and confidently raise small concerns early.
  • How to deliberately teach body autonomy, consent, and healthy relationships to children with complex cognitive and communication needs.
  • Don’t wait for a crisis to find the gaps in your practice. Join us for a practical, insightful session that will strengthen how you protect and support your learners with the most complex SEND. 

Suitable for: Teaching Assistant, Support staff, Teacher
