Safeguarding Children Level 1

The safeguarding level 1 e-learning package is no longer available. Below is a PowerPoint that you can either work through, or a safeguarding lead within an organisation could deliver to a group of volunteers or staff.

The ESCB are working to upload this PowerPoint to a platform that will allow participants to take a short quiz, and if the pass mark is achieved it will produce a certificate.  There has been a delay in this process and we hope to have this in place by the end of May 2021.
