Education Settings - Safeguarding Under 5's in Schools

The Safeguarding Under 5's in Schools training courses will be delivered online.

This 2 hour training session is ONLY for Designated Safeguarding Leads and Deputies (DSL/D's) and Foundation Stage Leads in schools with pupils who are under 5 years old.  It may also be beneficial for Headteachers of settings with pupils under 5 years old to attend.

This course must be attended by the Foundation Stage Lead who should ideally also be fully trained as a DSL/D.

The training will provide an understanding of the mandatory safeguarding and welfare requirements in the EYFS Framework 2025.

The EYFS Statutory Framework was updated in September 2025 and our Safeguarding Under 5s in Schools course has been updated.

Headteachers and DSL/Ds in Primary settings with Under 5s on roll, EYFS Leads should attend the refreshed workshop.

The course is free for maintained schools and academies.  There is a charge for 'free' and independent school staff attending.

Attendance must be prioritised  Non-attendance without prior cancellation or agreement will be charged if it is not in line with our charging policy.

You must register or login to check availability on all course dates.

**Places are limited to 3 per school per course.  Additional places booked will be cancelled and you will be asked to move to another date.**
