The Single Central Record (SCR) is a vital safeguarding document, providing clear evidence that pre-appointment checks have been completed for all individuals working in or associated with your setting, and that mandatory safeguarding recruitment practices are being adhered to.
This practical 90-minute training supports in understanding what must be recorded, who is responsible, and how to maintain compliance in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education.
Suitable for maintained, academy, free and independent education settings.
Builds confidence, strengthens safer recruitment practices, and ensures your setting is inspection ready.
Available on-demand via a recorded video, the training is flexible, up to date, and includes time for personal reflection.
Content
Population and maintaining the SCR is a key responsibility often carried out by School Business Managers or School Administrators. The completeness and accuracy of the checks being carried out and the information recorded on the SCR is often the responsibility of the Safeguarding Governor, Senior Leaders or Designated Safeguarding Lead. Therefore, it is imperative that these key roles have awareness and understanding of the expectations of which recruitment checks need to be completed and what evidence needs to be obtained and recorded.
This non-statutory 90-minute session has been developed to complement and further strengthen existing safer recruitment knowledge, as well as give those staff members confidence and understanding for daily management of the SCR. It is not intended to replace the need to attend a statutory Safer Recruitment training session.
Developed in line with statutory legislation, including Keeping Children Safe in Education and sector best practice, this course follows the safer recruitment steps to ensure a clear understanding of the compliance requirements for recording SCR entries for staff, salaried trainees, agency and third-party workers, governors, proprietors, and academy trust members and trustees.
