KCSIE 2026 Staff Training – Part One INSET + Scenario Simulator

(0)
KCSIE 2026 staff training for all staff: an editable INSET on Part one with 44 trainer slides, a facilitator guide and an offline scenario simulator. Includes the Part One Scenario Simulator: staff work through 10 school-day safeguarding scenarios (24 decisions), get instant feedback citing the KCSIE 2026 paragraph, and finish with a score summary and a printable, named, dated completion certificate. Room vote mode. Nothing typed is saved or sent. The certificate records participation in a practice activity; it is not an accredited qualification. Keeping children safe in education (KCSIE) is the Department for Education’s statutory safeguarding guidance for schools and colleges in England.

Where something is a school’s own decision, the pack says so.
