The 360 degree safe tool and the supporting policy templates have been updated in September 2023 to take account of the latest DfE Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance and the updated DfE Technical Standards for Schools and College. Find out about the changes we have made here!

  • A process for identifying strengths and areas for development.
  • Opportunities for commitment and involvement from the whole school.
