Why do we need supervision?

Being Designated Safeguarding Lead or a member of the Safeguarding Team brings obvious challenges, anxiety and stresses.

With the changes to safeguarding legislation, COVID-19, lack of resources, changes in local safeguarding partnership procedures and supporting staff, children and families with safeguarding concerns things can very quickly become over whelming.

Supervision brings a structured opportunity to support your team through these challenges, to ensure wellbeing and maintain high standards of safeguarding.

Here's what people say about our training...

Primary School

I discovered that supervision is a much bigger area than I had imagined and there is a lot more to it than I initially thought.

Yvonne and Karen made it very easy to understand and gave practical scenarios.

Academy School

Excellent resources, delivery and a chance to practice the principles highlighted.

A productive and enjoyable day, thank you

Children's Centre

Very clear and concise. I found that I am far more directive than I thought and I need to develop reflective/coaching skills. Would recommend to other people - it is fab. I had a great day.

Primary School

I now have a full understanding of what effective supervision is.

I know what makes supervision positive, how valuable it is and how to run a session effectively with the correct framework.

Primary School

Fabulous training, pitched perfectly.
All aims were achieved by the end of the session. Thank you Yvonne and Karen.
