Core safeguarding training modules aim to promote a safer church across church communities, from members of our congregations to our senior leaders. For some completion of safeguarding training is an expectation as we strive to achieve best practice, for others it is a mandatory requirement for the role they fulfil. Some form of safeguarding training should take place at least once every three years where you should refresh the highest level of training you have undertaken. You can find the latest safeguarding training and development practice guidance on the Church of England website." } ] } ] ```
