Postal workers, delivery drivers and workers who regularly visit homes are well placed to spot any emerging safeguarding concerns or signs of possible abuse and neglect.
To support you, we're temporarily making our paid-for safeguarding course free for you to access while most children are out of school. If you've previously purchased this course, log in to access it.
We recommend you complete the course in one sitting as your progress won't be saved. It should take about 15 minutes. Click on the > arrow below and progress through the course.
Having problems? Try playing the course full screen. If you need to get in touch call us on 0116 234 7246 or email learning@nspcc.org.uk
We have a range of elearning and face-to-face safeguarding training courses for anyone working or volunteering with children and young people. We’re temporarily reducing the price of our elearning to support all people working with children during the coronavirus pandemic.
