Independent Research

Safeguarding Training:
Your Honest Experience

I'm carrying out independent research into how people experience safeguarding training — what works, what doesn't, and whether there's appetite for something different.

Ten questions. About 2 minutes. No right answers — honest ones are what matter.

Question 1 of 10

01 Which best describes your current role?
02 What type of setting do you primarily work in?
03 How long have you worked in a role involving children or young people?
04 Honestly, how do you typically approach safeguarding training?
05 How engaging do you generally find safeguarding training?
Not engaging at allExtremely engaging
06 What frustrates you most about safeguarding training?

Pick up to 3.

07 How useful do you think an interactive, scenario-based approach to safeguarding training could be — where you make decisions and see what happens as a result?
Not useful at allExtremely useful
08 Would you be interested in testing an early prototype of a browser-based safeguarding simulation — a branching story where your decisions change the outcome?
09 In your own words, what would make safeguarding training actually stick?

Optional, but your words may be quoted (anonymously) in research.
