A brief summary of actions not covered in previous drop-ins can be read below:
Brief notes of discussions:
- Safeguarding training can be accessed via the Church of England training portal here.
- Equal Opportunities Policy – this is now required to be sent out with DBS information. Sara will work with a PSO from St Andrew Chase Side to create a template which will be shared.
- Parish Safeguarding Hubs are a very useful tool. It should be fairly intuitive and there are some Hub resources on the Diocese of London web pages here. If anyone has questions, please contact sara.black@london.anglican.org.
- You can read the required attendees of the various safeguarding training pathways on the Church of England Leadership and Development Framework here.
General updates:
- The INEQE draft report has been received by the Diocese and checked for factual accuracies, pending publication of the full report. Parishes will be notified when it is published and it will also be found independently on the INEQE web pages here. Parishes were particularly thanked for their engagement with the process.
