Why is this training important?

The relevant legislation to this course is the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015. This legislation places a duty on certain bodies to have:
“due regard to the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism”.
The people that have a duty to prevent this radicalisation and extremism being inflicted upon children are listed in Schedule 6 to the Act.
The Prevent strategy is part of a Counter-terrorism strategy. The aim of the prevent strategy aims to reduce the threat of terrorism on the UK, by preventing them from being drawn to it or being part of it. By targeting those who are still young and developing, we allow them to be educated and form their opinions about why terrorism is wrong. Thus aiming to reduce terrorism as a whole.
