Safeguarding training for tutors working with children and young people

Are you a tutor who works with children and young people, either face-to-face or online?

Whether you’re a large tutoring company, an independent, self-employed tutor or a charity, you need to understand your role and responsibilities in protecting children and young people from harm.

As experts in safeguarding, we’ve produced an elearning course for tutors to support you in protecting young people from abuse and responding to child protection concerns.

What will I learn?

  • Policies and procedures you need to have in place before you start working with children.
  • Practical tips for making sure your sessions are safe, whether it’s being delivered in your home, the child’s home, at a place of work or online.
  • How to recognise child protection concerns.
  • What to do if you are worried about a child.
  • How to respond if a child tells you they are experiencing abuse.
  • A summary of relevant child protection legislation and guidance across the UK.

Benefits of the course

  • CPD certified.
  • Regularly updated to reflect changes in legislation, guidance and best practice advice.
  • Includes film scenarios, interactive quizzes and reflective tasks to help you develop your understanding and confidence.
  • Complete at your own pace and in your own time.
  • Train anytime, anywhere and take the course as many times as you like within one year.
  • Personalised downloadable certificate of achievement.
  • If you purchase licences on behalf of your team, you can download a report to show who has completed the course.
  • Once you’ve taken the course, it doesn’t stop there. We have a range of further information, training and downloadable resources to help you protect the children you work with.
  • Income generated from the sale of our training courses is reinvested back into the NSPCC to help protect children.

At the NSPCC, we work to keep children and young people safe from abuse and neglect every day.

As experts on safeguarding and child protection, we understand the issues organisations and people working with children can face. That’s why professionals trust us to provide the support, training and resources they need to help protect the children and young people they work with.

Our highly-rated training courses are developed by experts. We work with a number of organisations, experienced consultants and subject matter experts in a range of sectors to develop courses that are clear, easy-to-use, up-to-date and in line with the latest statutory guidance, and tailored to your needs.

And as a charity, income generated from the sale of our training courses is reinvested back into the NSPCC to help protect children.

This elearning course is CPD certified by the CPD Certification Service. This means you can be confident that the training meets the highest standards.

Continuing professional development, or CPD for short, helps professionals keep their skills and knowledge up to date. It demonstrates your commitment to safeguarding children and upholding the standards of your profession.

Some professional associations have mandatory CPD or safeguarding training requirements for their members, but all professionals will benefit from investing time in their CPD. And taking an online CPD course means you can train at your own pace, wherever suits you.

Our online courses will work in most browsers, though we recommend that you use Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Safari (not Firefox). You will need to make sure your browser is up to date for the course to run.

This course can be taken on PCs and Macs, as well as iPads or other tablet devices. Please note, we are unable to provide full technical support for tablet users. We do not support other mobile devices.
