Safeguarding is a key strategic priority for Learn Academies Trust. The Learn Academies Trust Safeguarding Policy, with accompanying Safeguarding Practice Guidance and Safeguarding Training Framework, can all be found on our Documents and Policies page.

A senior DSL leads the Trust’s DSL network, with administrative support from the Central Team’s Safeguarding Coordinator. The group reviews safeguarding policy, procedure and training provision and oversees the Trust-wide Safeguarding Peer Review programme introduced in 2020.
