Course Description
Our Safeguarding Children Level 3 Refresher training course is designed for anyone who has completed their training in the past, whether that is through face-to-face or digital courses, and is looking to refresh their knowledge.
This Level 3 course is our most in-depth Safeguarding Children course, and has been designed for managers or supervisors who have regular contact with children and their families as part of their role.
It explores safeguarding as a topic including legislation, policies, signs and symptoms of abuse, as well as detailed information regarding reporting suspected abuse, whether it has been reported to them by a child, an adult or a member of staff.
Why take this course?
If you work with children as part of your role, it is a statutory requirement to have safeguarding training. As part of this requirement, it is essential that the training is update and refreshed regularly. This is why refresher courses are so important.
Though each company will decide how often the training is refreshed, a common recommendation is every two years. Though this will depend on your role, the more senior you are, the more frequently you are likely to need to update your training in order to keep in the know.

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.

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!
