Description

Every year in the UK, more than 50,000 children are identified as needing immediate safeguarding support, and many more stay unseen. A Designated Safeguarding Lead is often the person who notices the first signs of risk. Our Level 3 designated safeguarding lead training helps you gain the confidence to act early, respond safely and protect children who rely on skilled adults to speak up for them. With proper DSL training, your organisation is more likely to meet its legal duties. And when you understand the law and referral steps, tough situations are less likely to become serious. In the end, this course replaces guesswork with clear rules, simple processes, and responsibilities you can act on.

What You Will Learn from the Designated Safeguarding Lead Training 

Upon completion of this safeguarding lead training, you will be able to:
  • Recognise the specific role and responsibilities of the Designated Safeguarding Lead.
  • Identify barriers to reporting and how to overcome them within your team.
  • Recognise the signs of various types of abuse, including neglect and grooming.
  • Decide when to share information with police, social care, and families.
  • Maintain accurate, confidential records that stand up to scrutiny.
  • Execute a clear plan of action when an allegation is made against staff.

Keeping Your Designated Safeguarding Lead Training Knowledge Up to Date

Renewal Recommendation: Refresh your training every 2 years. Safeguarding rules, guidance and expectations change often. Renewing your designated safeguarding lead training ensures you stay confident with new laws, reporting pathways and early intervention methods. 

Who This Level 3 Safeguarding Training Is For

Our course is designed for anyone who already has, or wants to have, lead responsibility for safeguarding. This includes:
  • Headteachers, deputy heads, and senior school leaders
  • Nursery managers and early years staff
  • Care home managers and social care supervisors
  • Charity welfare officers and club safety leads
This training helps you move from general staff to a confident, accountable safeguarding lead.

What Makes This Programme Stand Out

To begin with, the course focuses on your legal duties under current UK law. It guides you through each part of the safeguarding system with clear modules and real examples. And because it is CPD-recognised, it gives you the certificate required for Level 3 safeguarding compliance.

How the Training Helps You Stay Prepared

You will learn how to:
  • Recognise different types of abuse
  • Support colleagues who raise concerns
  • Act quickly without causing additional harm
  • Understand your organisation’s safeguarding structure
  • Share information responsibly with other agencies
  • Guide others through difficult decisions
  • Keep accurate and clear records of all concerns

How the Designated Safeguarding Lead Training Is Assessed

At the end of your designated safeguarding lead training, you will complete a short online assessment. You need 60% to pass, and free retakes are available. Your CPD certified PDF certificate will be ready immediately after passing. You may also download it at any time throughout your lifetime course access.
