Safeguarding Mental Health

When working within education and working with pupils, we must recognise the important relationship between safeguarding concerns and mental health and wellbeing. To distinguish what actions we must take to support mental health and wellbeing, we must first understand current guidance and see where we are at present.

Everyone working within education must understand how Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSiE) guidance impacts their responsibilities.

This thought-provoking course explores the relationship between mental and safeguarding and will support you in implementing changes throughout your setting.
