Against the backdrop of the key legal and regulatory duties, we will look at the proactive steps trustees can take to embed the culture in the school and evaluate and monitor the effectiveness, as well as working through practical examples of how to deal with safeguarding crises when they arise.  This will include consideration of the issues from a range of perspectives including pupil welfare, staff behaviour, disciplinary action and reporting, governance, serious incident reporting and preparation of the communications plan.
