Safeguarding Learning Pathways
Which pathways do I need to complete?
The Core safeguarding learning pathways - Basic Awareness, Foundation and Leadership - have been developed as a modular programme which builds learning according to role.
Core Safeguarding Learning Pathways
These pathways should be completed in consecutive order until an individual has reached the required highest level of learning for their role. You can find out more about the pathways and the role requirements here: Core safeguarding learning pathways.
Specialist and Additional Training Courses
Additional safeguarding learning pathways have been developed to further enhance safeguarding knowledge in specific practice areas, or for specific roles, these are the Specialist Training Courses as well as other Training delivered by the Diocesan Safeguarding team.
Support in accessing training
The Safeguarding Team recognise that participating in safeguarding training for someone who has personal experience in relation to safeguarding issues, can be difficult and emotive. Pastoral care during training means we have a responsibility to meet the spiritual, pastoral and welfare needs of all those attending and strive to create supportive and safe conditions to enable participation and engagement. If you would value a confidential and supportive conversation to explore how training can be accessed in an environment that minimises upset and or discomfort for you, please contact one of the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisors.
