Audiobook | Early Years Foundation Stage 2026 – Part 3 Safeguarding & Welfare Requirements

vendredi 7 août 2026 • Durée 01:04:21

Welcome to the Early Years Foundation Stage 2026 Audiobook: Part 3 – The Safeguarding and Welfare Requirements

Thank you for taking the time to listen to this audiobook, created to support early years leaders, managers, practitioners and providers in understanding the safeguarding and welfare requirements within the Early Years Foundation Stage 2026.

These requirements form the foundation of safe, effective and high-quality early years practice. They set out the statutory expectations that help ensure children are healthy, safe, secure and supported to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Throughout this audiobook, we will explore the key responsibilities that providers and practitioners must understand and implement, including safeguarding and child protection, safer recruitment, staff training and supervision, health and safety, staff-to-child ratios, safer eating and sleeping practices, risk assessment, information sharing, record keeping, and working effectively with children and families.

The guidance reminds us that safeguarding is not simply about compliance. It is about creating environments where children feel safe, valued and supported, and where professionals are confident to identify concerns, take appropriate action and promote children's welfare at every opportunity.

As you listen, we encourage you to reflect on your own practice and consider how the requirements are embedded within your setting. Every policy, procedure and professional decision contributes to creating a culture where children can learn, develop and thrive.

Thank you for listening. We hope this audiobook strengthens your understanding of the EYFS safeguarding and welfare requirements and supports your ongoing commitment to providing safe, nurturing and child-centred care.

Every child deserves the best possible start in life. By understanding and applying the requirements explored throughout this audiobook, we can help create environments where children are protected, supported and able to flourish.

mercredi 8 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:22:28

Welcome to the Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026 Audiobook: Part One and Annex A

Thank you for taking the time to listen to this audiobook, which has been created to support all staff in schools and colleges in understanding their safeguarding responsibilities under Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026. Reading and understanding Part One of the guidance is a statutory requirement for all staff, and Annex A contains important additional information for those who work directly with children.

Throughout this audiobook, you will be guided through the key principles, responsibilities and safeguarding issues that every member of staff needs to understand in order to help keep children safe. You will hear about the importance of adopting a child-centred approach, recognising that safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is everyone's responsibility and that every decision should be made in the best interests of the child.

The audiobook explores:

• The role of all staff in identifying concerns, responding appropriately and working as part of the wider safeguarding system.

• The safeguarding policies, procedures and reporting processes that every member of staff should know and follow.

• The role of the Designated Safeguarding Lead and the importance of sharing concerns promptly and effectively.

• Understanding abuse, neglect and exploitation, including physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse and neglect.

• Child-on-child abuse, online safety and the growing ways in which technology can feature within safeguarding concerns.

• Child criminal exploitation, child sexual exploitation, county lines, serious violence, domestic abuse, mental health concerns, radicalisation and other significant safeguarding risks.

• The importance of professional curiosity, trusting your instincts and maintaining an attitude of “it could happen here” when concerns arise.

• What to do when concerns are identified, including the importance of acting immediately, recording concerns accurately and sharing information appropriately to safeguard children.

Audiobook | Working Together to Safeguard Children (2026) - Chapter 3

mercredi 3 juin 2026 • Durée 01:46:16

Welcome to Chapter 3 of our audio book to Working Together to Safeguard Children 2026.

In this second release, we move from principles into practice—exploring how the safeguarding system provides help, support, and protection for children and families at every level of need. Whether concerns are emerging or risks are significant, this chapter sets out how services respond with clarity, coordination, and purpose.

This part of the guidance is for everyone working directly with children and families, and for those who design, lead, or commission services. It will deepen your understanding of how universal services, early help, Family Help, and statutory intervention come together as a single, joined-up system—ensuring children receive the right help at the right time.

Chapter 3 places strong emphasis on early identification, timely intervention, and consistent relationships. It introduces and embeds the Family Help model, showing how targeted early help and statutory support align to create a seamless pathway for families. It also sets clear expectations for multi-agency assessment, decision-making, and planning, alongside the statutory duties that underpin child in need and child protection work.

You’ll explore the practical realities of safeguarding: how to recognise when families need support, how assessments should be carried out, and how practitioners work together to respond to risk, both inside and outside the home. The chapter also gives detailed guidance on responding to complex needs, including extra-familial harm, domestic abuse, exploitation, and the specific vulnerabilities of babies, disabled children, and young carers.

At its heart, this chapter is about action, what good safeguarding looks like in day-to-day practice, how collaboration works in real terms, and how systems must respond quickly, thoughtfully, and proportionately to keep children safe and help families thrive.

Let’s continue.

Saison 3 · Épisode 1

mercredi 22 avril 2026 • Durée 33:15

In this round-table episode, our safeguarding consultants explore one of the UK’s most pressing digital questions: should social media be banned for under 16s?

Drawing on professional insight and real-world experience, the panel examines the impact of social media on young people’s mental health, exposure to harmful content, and risks such as online exploitation. The discussion also considers the balance between parental responsibility, platform accountability, and the role of government regulation.

With reference to the Online Safety Act 2023, the episode explores whether stronger safeguards are enough, or whether more restrictive approaches should be considered to better protect children and young people.

This episode offers a balanced and thought-provoking conversation for anyone working with children, supporting families, or navigating the realities of online safety today.

The 2026 update strengthens expectations for inclusive, anti‑racist and anti‑discriminatory practice; confirms the guidance applies to all children, including unborn babies; expands responses to harms such as domestic abuse, child sexual abuse, coercive control, online risks and group‑based exploitation; embeds the Family Help model by integrating early help and Section 17 support into a single multidisciplinary offer; and reinforces multi‑agency accountability with clearer information‑sharing duties, stronger use of data and impact‑focused reporting, all within a more streamlined statutory framework that supports consistent, high‑quality safeguarding practice

In Chapter 1, we begin with the foundations: what shared responsibility for safeguarding truly means in today’s system. You’ll explore the principles of child‑centred practice, the value of whole‑family approaches, and how strong professional relationships, curiosity, and effective information sharing underpin good safeguarding work. This opening chapter sets the scene for the guidance that follows and the collaborative culture it seeks to strengthen.

mardi 29 juillet 2025 • Durée 25:04

In this episode we explore the complex and often overlooked issue of stalking behaviours among young people. From obsessive messaging to digital surveillance, these behaviours can subtly emerge in teenage relationships and social circles, often normalised by pop culture or peer dynamics.
