Aim: This webinar provides you with an understanding of schools’ statutory duty to safeguard students who take part in external work experience or placements, including guidance on how to achieve compliance, implement best practice, and overcome additional safeguarding challenges that students might face.

Rationale: Schools’ duty of care to students extends to work experience placements completed with external providers. It’s essential, therefore, that school leaders know how to meet statutory guidance for the safety and welfare of their students – and that schools are aware of the additional risks that could arise, with appropriate strategies in place to mitigate potential harm.
