Safeguarding Sexually Active Young People

Training Programme

The training is designed to assist course participants working with sexually active young people to identify when relationships may be abusive and the children and young people who may need the provision of protection or additional services. The session will therefore help to develop a greater awareness of situations that may require a child protection referral and the procedure guidance in order to facilitate this process.

Programme Aims

To equip participants with the knowledge and skills to confidently undertake a risk assessment and complete a risk assessment tool when working with sexually active young people.
