This important webinar will highlight the issues related to managing peer-on-peer abuse incidents and allegations in school. It will look carefully at both the contextual and research information contained in the DfE guidance “Sexual Violence and Sexual Harassment between children in schools and colleges”.
The webinar will also explore how schools can use the guidance when managing cases, and will also consider how to respond to non-recent allegations, including those which come to light as a result of Everyone’s Invited and other testimonies, and other allegations of non-recent abuse.
