Why is this training important

Compliance

It's important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.

It's crucial that all staff read Part one (or Annex A, where Governing bodies deem appropriate) of the KSCIE document to better understand their safeguarding responsibilities. 

This guidance applies to all schools and colleges and is for:

• headteachers, teachers and staff
• governing bodies, proprietors and management committees

It sets out the legal duties you must follow to safeguard and promote the welfare of children and young people under the age of 18 in schools and colleges.

All school and college staff should read part 1 of this guidance. Part 1 of the guidance is also available as a standalone document.
