Urgent reminder, there are still places available on our Pan-Cumbria Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) Training - Education and Early Years Providers.
We would like to encourage as many educational settings as possible to attend.
This online session will focus on the role of early years and education settings in safeguarding children and responding to concerns about child sexual abuse (CSA).
This session is part of a North West regional approach to strengthening how organisations work together to prevent, recognise, and respond to CSA. Safeguarding partners across the Northwest region are developing a consistent approach to CSA, and the contribution of early years providers, schools, colleges, and education/training professionals is essential to ensuring children are protected and supported at the earliest possible stage.
The purpose of this session is to provide space for reflection, learning, and discussion grounded in education and early years practice. The session will explore:
- The role of early years and education settings in identifying concerns, listening to children, and acting on safeguarding worries
- What is working well in safeguarding practice across settings
- Common challenges
- How education settings work alongside children’s social care, police, health, and other safeguarding partners
This session is not about inspection or compliance. It is intended to support learning from practice, build confidence, and strengthen consistent safeguarding responses across the region.
This session is specifically for:
- Early years providers (including nurseries, childminders, and pre-schools)
- Designated Safeguarding Leads and deputies
- Teachers, pastoral staff, and education leaders
- Colleges and alternative provision staff working with children and young people
Session date
- Monday 18 May 2026 (4.00 - 5.30pm) via Teams
