Train staff on spotting the signs and indicators of bullying, including cyberbullying and prejudice-based and discriminatory bullying, with this flexible safeguarding training pack. With a ready-made presentation to deliver to staff, two accompanying safeguarding scenarios on bullying, quiz questions, a discussion prompt and 3 one-minute guides to send and display, this whole pack works seamlessly to train staff in safeguarding and keeping children safe.
Created from content in KCSIE 2023, this helpful bundle contains four resources that work together to create a full training package about safeguarding and bullying (child-on-child abuse).
Staff Training Presentation - Bullying: A ready-to-deliver 28-slide PowerPoint presentation that outlines the signs and indicators of bullying, including cyberbullying and prejudice-based and discriminatory bullying, 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 bullying.
Scenarios - Bullying / Prejudice-Based and Discriminatory Bullying (LGBT+): Two editable scenarios that outlines fictional situations where bullying is occurring. Both include full commentary and guided considerations for the DSL or staff member leading the child protection training. Use them 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 - Bullying: There are five challenging multiple choice quiz questions that test your staff members’ understanding of bullying, plus a discussion prompt that can be used to kickstart your training session or as a follow-up question a few weeks later.
Safeguarding Snapshots - Bullying / Cyberbullying / Prejudice-Based and Discriminatory Bullying: These one-page, one-minute guide are 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. There are three included in this training bundle.
The pack is purposefully designed to be flexible to suit your busy school. You could deliver the training in one slot by utilising the presentation, scenario, quiz and snapshot together. Alternatively, deliver the initial CPD by using the presentation, then use the scenario and quiz questions in later staff meetings or future safeguarding training sessions, with the snapshot used as a reminder of the training content.

New to leading a subject in a school or setting and unsure where to start? This pack walks you through how to rapidly gather information about your subject so you can plan to make relevant changes and improvements. Designed to be time-efficient and work around your classroom commitments, this pack supports busy subject leaders who have no current insight about their subject to quickly get a handle on it. It’s also useful if you are mentoring or supporting a colleagues new to subject leadership.
This full pack talks you through where to begin if you’ve just started a subject leadership role or if you’re new to a setting or subject. It’s designed to assume you’re starting with very limited knowledge of the subject you lead and will guide you through the initial monitoring process so you can find out the picture of your subject quickly, including its strengths and weaknesses.
With fully editable templates, the pack’s Initial Information Exploration Checklist looks at how to monitor step-by-step and is broken down into how you can investigate the following areas:
Documentation, such as the SIP, SEF, curriculum policy and curriculum statement
Professional dialogue, such as pupil and staff voice, and meeting with other leaders
Monitoring intent through long- and medium-term planning scrutiny
Monitoring implementation through learning walks, learning environments and resourcing
Monitoring impact through book looks and work scrutiny.
Editable, ready-made monitoring templates are included in the purchase for all of the above areas.
While on paper, this may seem overwhelming, these areas have been specifically broken down so you can cover the subject with the broad-brush approach, find out the initial information, triangulate it and use it to form a subject action plan. Not only that, but we’ve included considerations of when and how you can monitor and fit this around your teaching commitments, saving you time and supporting your workload.
Suitable for new subject leaders or subject leaders who are new to a setting or a subject will find this pack to be extremely useful, as would anyone who’s got subject leadership responsibility but is unsure of the picture of their subject and wants a starting point. Heads, SLT and curriculum leaders can also use this pack and share it with subject leaders so they can quickly get up to speed.
