Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children refers to the process of protecting children from maltreatment, preventing the impairment of children’s health or development, ensuring that children are growing up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care and taking action to enable all children to have the best life chances.

PREVENT Duty
The UK government has recently placed a legal duty on schools to have due regard to the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism.
