Safeguarding Training

Swindon Local Safeguarding Children Board is committed to providing a comprehensive and effective training programme to agencies within Swindon.

The Swindon LSCB training programme has been developed by the Safeguarding Trainer and the Swindon LSCB Training Sub-group, which brings together representatives of partner agencies. The programme aims to increase participants knowledge and skills in the field of child protection to enable them to provide high-quality services and improve outcomes for children, young people and their families and carers. It is underpinned by an ethos which values working together collaboratively across agencies, respecting diversity, promoting equality, is child centred and promotes the participation of children, young people and families in the processes.
