This course has been carefully designed to give you a clear and practical understanding of risk management and safer caring in the context of children looked after. Across the modules, you will explore the foundations of safe practice, how to recognise potential risks, and how to apply professional judgement in everyday situations. The course will also help you reflect on your role in creating safe, nurturing environments where children can grow, learn, and thrive.

 

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Understand what risk management and safer caring mean, and why they are essential in practice.
  • Recognise different types of risks that children may face, including emotional, physical, and environmental.
  • Apply safer caring strategies in everyday decisions, balancing protection with respect for children’s independence.
  • Identify professional responsibilities in responding to concerns, including clear steps for managing situations safely.
  • Respond to complex challenges in a trauma-informed, consistent, and confident way.

This course is CPD accredited and adheres to the training, support and development standards outlined in The Fostering Services (England) Regulations 2011. It is also tailored to where you live in the UK, adhering to each country’s own individual regulators - namely: Ofsted, The Care Inspectorate (Wales), The Care Inspectorate (Scotland), and The Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority (Northern Ireland).

If you have 5 or more learners who require this training, you might like to consider our face-to-face option instead.
