Advanced safeguarding for Trust Leaders

19 November 2026

This one-day programme aims to support senior Trust Leaders in the increasingly complex role of the oversight of safeguarding across trusts of varying sizes and make up.

Effective safeguarding is a core principle in ANY school or trust and ensuring that schools align with the trusts’ safeguarding values and a consistent approach to practice is key.

Each school must have effective local safeguarding leadership whilst also being aligned to those shared standards. Senior leaders have to find the balance in testing out core Trust values and vision set within the unique profile for each school

The role increasingly holds a responsibility to feed into Boards / Trustees so that they in turn can plan and challenge strategically.

Safeguarding is also likely to hold a place in forthcoming MAT inspections.

Safeguarding across trusts is a complex scenario which also covers the dynamics of the revised inclusion and SEND focus. The course gives the opportunity to look to existing operational and strategic practice and think about the role “in the round”.

The programme is intended for new and experienced Trust safeguarding leaders, and other Trust senior leaders with delegated responsibility for safeguarding oversight.
