Prevent in Schools
Schools and colleges have a duty to do all they can to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism. This comes under section 26 of the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015, as stated in Keeping Children Safe in Education 2020 and is an Ofsted requirement, known as The Prevent Duty.
This blog offers some useful ideas to help open up such conversations, which will hopefully support staff in feeling more confident in discussing extremism, radicalisation and terrorism.

Talking to children about domestic abuse
As children are returning to school post-Covid lockdown, there are concerns about a ‘tsunami of need’ relating to children who have been living for months with domestic abuse.
