Recommendation 3

Paragraph: 18
Schools lack adequate time and funding for effective KCSiE guidance implementation.
Conclusion
The Government has updated the statutory Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance to include tackling peer-on-peer sexual harassment and sexual violence. This is a positive step to ensure that schools better protect children and young people from harmful sexual behaviour. However, schools need the appropriate time and money to implement the guidance properly and provide effective safeguarding training.
