Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. Designed for coaches, volunteers and sports professionals who have previously completed safeguarding training, this refresher course reinforces key safeguarding principles and helps learners maintain their knowledge and confidence in protecting children and young people in sport. Through practical examples and reflection, learners will revisit best practice and their role in creating safe sporting environments.
By the end of the course, learners will be able to:
- Explain why safeguarding children and young people is essential in sport.
- Recognise the signs and categories of child abuse and poor practice.
- Understand best practice procedures, including the role of codes of conduct in sport.
- Apply the principles of recognising, responding, reporting and recording safeguarding concerns.
This course is aimed primarily at those who have previously attended a safeguarding workshop or equivalent within the last 3 years and is designed to aid and refresh learning.
