Course Description
Our Safeguarding Children Level 1 Refresher course is designed for anyone who has previously completed their Safeguarding Children Level 1 training, whether that is by face-to-face or digital means, and is looking to refresh and update their knowledge.
Anyone who works with children has safeguarding duties, though these will vary depending on your role. Our Level 1 course is aimed at those who have limited safeguarding responsibilities.
It explores what safeguarding is and covers key topics such as signs and symptoms of abuse, legislation, what to do if you suspect abuse and or if a child discloses instances of abuse.
Why take this course?
Safeguarding training gives you the knowledge you need to ensure you safeguarding and protect children from abuse and harm.
It is a statutory requirement that anyone who works with children have up to date knowledge and insights into safeguarding. In order to meet these requirements, you must ensure you complete training and regularly refresh it, which is why refresher courses are so important.
Though the company usually decides on how often safeguarding training needs to be refreshed, many choose every two years, though this will depend on the role and required responsibilities.

What our clients say
Optimal People and Business are experts in all things HR. We worked successfully with them to produce a series of information videos to help businesses during the Corona lockdown. We are looking forward to working with them again in the near future as we grow our business.
We personally dealt with Vici at Optimal and she was a delight. She was open and honest and gave great advice and guidance. She helped us deal with what could have been a very difficult dismissal with a problematic member of staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Vici to any business for their HR.
Can’t thank Mel and the team enough. Really helped my business in a crisis. Looking forward to working with you and the team.
Brilliant service, friendly staff, lovely team
Amazing service and support from extremely knowledgeable people, who also take great care in the standard of their work. Can't fault them, thank you so much!
5* all round, Mel was extremely helpful and answered all my questions, very friendly and professional. Recommended to others and would definitely use again. Thank you again Mel and Helen.
Mel and her team are fantastic, help me all along the way with some complex issues. Couldn't recommend more.
I've used Optimal PBS on a couple of occasions now to assist with due diligence on an acquisition i've been working on and also to provide contract and handbook production. Cannot fault the support or advice provided.
We love this company and Mel is a god send to our business, she sorted everything for us from employee contracts to helping us source the right accountant, she is at the end of the phone whenever I have any HR questions (even when on holiday) can not fault her commitment. Keep up the good work!
