The Gloucestershire Association of Primary Headteachers (GAPH) is holding a safeguarding conference on the 1st March for all Headteachers, Senior Leaders, Governors, Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs), SEN Co-ordinators and staff from schools in Gloucestershire and surrounding areas.
Here visitors can see key speakers including Andrew Hall (author of the Safeguarding Handbook, the definitive guide to safeguarding for headteachers and Designated Safeguarding Leads), Jane Bee (manager for Safeguarding in Education for the Gloucestershire Safeguarding Children Board), Nicola Morgan (an international education consultant, author and teacher and has over twenty years’ experience working in a variety of early years, primary and secondary settings, including mainstream and special needs schools), and many more to hear about their expertise and experience of working in challenging circumstances.
Attendees can also see demonstrations of NetSupport’s safeguarding toolkit which provides a range and proactive and reactive tools that help maintain a safe learning environment and meet the latest government requirements. With many online risks and an ever-changing language used by young people, it’s impossible for staff to be knowledgeable about everything. And with NetSupport DNA, schools don’t have to be. Working with Safeguarding Leads, Local Authorities, The Internet Watch Foundations, leading charities and young people themselves, helps ensure the tools are relevant, effective and most importantly, up-to-date.
