There are a few places still available on RSCP’s popular course, RSCP Designated Lead (Level 3). It should be taken by those who have already attended the course, Working Together to Safeguard Children (Safeguarding Level 2), in the past two years.

This online course will further develop and refresh knowledge and skills to work in partnership with other agencies and professionals supporting children and their families through child protection. 

This course is part of RSCP’s Safer Settings series and has the following learning outcomes:

• State the processes needed to ensure a safe environment for children
• Recognise barriers and challenge blocks to disclosure of abuse
• Understand the actions to take when informed of concerns, including concerns regarding staff or volunteers
• Understand the Early Intervention Process and the workings of the Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub
• Consider the referral process and what further role they may have in plans to safeguard children
• Demonstrate an awareness of the emotional dimension of safeguarding work and identify a network for support within their organisations
• Recognise and challenge their own values regarding abuse and maltreatment and its impact on professional practice.
