Secondary Conference on Climate Change

Please click below for the flyer to find out more. 

This information will also be shared with Geography Heads of Department via their Subject Network. Schools can sign up by emailing schools@interclimate.org by the 8th October.

Harlequins Trophy Assembly

On Behalf of Hounslow Safeguarding Children Partnership

New course covering Familial Child Sexual Abuse

HSCP would like to share the following information about keeping children safe. 
 
In the UK we ‘miss’ most children who are sexually abused. We identify only 1 in 8 children at risk. This applies to Hounslow and we want this to change. We have asked professionals what they need to help them to keep children safe and they told us they need training as a starting point.
 
HSCP would like to offer training appropriate for professionals whose work involves children and their parents and is free to Hounslow public sector organisations.
 
The course takes place over 2 consecutive half days (see link below for date options).  Delegates must attend both half days. Delivery will be via Teams unless we are able to return to the classroom in which case it would take place at St John’s Road. We will of course inform you nearer the time. To reserve a place, please email your preferred course dates to LSCB@hounslow.gov.uk
