Course outline:

Is your Single Central Record (SCR) fully compliant?

All schools and colleges are required to maintain a SCR in accordance with statutory guidance and relevant legislation. However, common issues such as inaccuracies and missing information continue to pose compliance risks, often leading to poor inspection outcomes and negative safeguarding judgements.

This webinar is designed to support staff with operational or oversight responsibility for the SCR. It will provide practical advice and clarity on how to meet latest compliance requirements and maintain a robust and accurate record.

Training topics will include how long to retain relevant evidence, procedures for maintenance and auditing, and actions to take when a staff member or volunteer is found unsuitable.

Training topics will include:

• The legal framework and Duty of Care – this session will explore current boarding practice with particular focus on safeguarding and the legal and inspection requirements of pastoral care in our schools
• Meeting the needs of the boarders – practical case studies will be used to explore the issues that arise every day in boarding, and suggest ways in which these issues can be dealt with effectively and with confidence by those in a Graduate or GAP assistant position
• Understanding your role in boarding – in this session the group will discuss and explore the expectations of the school, the boarding house, parents, along with your own expectations with regards your boarding role in the school
• Working safely and looking after yourself – some hints and tips on keeping yourself healthy, safe and enjoying your role in boarding!

Learning outcomes:

• Gain an understanding of key legislation and statutory guidance related to the SCR
• Learn how to develop a comprehensive checklist for compliance audits
• Understand best-practice procedures for maintaining and checking the SCR
