Safeguarding CPD for staff. Train staff on spotting the signs and indicators of sextortion with this flexible safeguarding training pack. With a ready-made presentation to deliver to your staff team, an accompanying safeguarding scenario on sextortion, quiz questions and answers, a discussion prompt and a one-minute guide to send and display, this whole pack works seamlessly to train staff in safeguarding and keeping children safe. Created from the latest guidance for education settings on sharing nudes and semi-nudes and to support schools to embed the advice made in the Financially motivated sexual extortion: an alert for education settings from CEOP, this helpful bundle contains four resources that work together to create a full training package about safeguarding and sextortion. You can use it to train your team on what sextortion is, what the signs and indicators are and how you can best support your students in response to this rapidly increasing threat to children’s safety. The bundle contains: Staff Training Presentation - Sextortion: A ready-to-deliver 20-slide PowerPoint presentation that outlines what sextortion is alongside its signs and indicators, followed by slides that allow staff to consider and discuss what puts pupils at greater risk, other factors to be aware of and what actions they should take. The presentation has built in discussion questions and finishes with a scenario and quiz to check staff understanding about sextortion. Scenario - Sextortion: An editable scenario that outlines a fictional situation where child sexual extortion (sextortion) is occurring. It also includes full commentary and guided considerations for the DSL or staff member leading the child protection training. Use it to gauge how effectively staff can identify the signs of abuse as well as how they’d respond in a real-life context, including further actions they’d take. Quiz and Discussion - Sextortion: There are five challenging multiple choice quiz questions that test your staff members’ understanding of sextortion, plus a discussion prompt that can be used to kickstart your training session or as a follow-up question a few weeks later. Safeguarding Snapshot - Sextortion: This one-page, one-minute guide is perfect for following up the session by using as a training handout, displaying in your staff-only spaces or sending as part of a safeguarding e-bulletin.
