Sexual Exploitation and Grooming

Teachers, school staff, parents and other agencies working with children need a greater awareness of the risks of sexual exploitation. Schools have a vital role to play in the identification and support of children who are at risk of grooming or sexual exploitation.

This course offers staff, volunteers and governors the opportunity to increase their understanding of sexual exploitation and develop a whole-school approach to identification and support.
