The Counter Terrorism & Security Act 2015 places a statutory duty for Specified Authorities including the Local Authority, schools and education establishments to have “due regard to the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism””<br>

Setting prioritised Online Safety and British Values content<br>
slide22. What happened:

slide24. Context is key
It’s important to remember that when it comes to spotting signs of radicalisation, context is key. To see if there is genuinely a cause for concern, you need to really understand the motivation and integrity in each instance.
Anyone could be radicalised. There is no one social group or set of personal circumstances that lead there.<br>
slide25. How to report a concern Important notes:
A referral can be made for any age group
Anyone can make the referral but do follow your safeguarding procedure
Provide as much detail as possible
INFORM parents/carers (should have spoken to them as part of notice, check, share anyway)- police may be in touch with your team and/or parents so important to be transparent<br>
slide26. Notice Check Share look out for changes in behaviour that cause you concern Be curious around potential extremist signs and symbols ask yourself whether this person might be susceptible to the risk of radicalisation handle safeguarding issues with duty and care try to understand the bigger picture by gaining more context check your concern discreetly with a colleague to see if they can offer any advice share information with your Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) or an equivalent share information early to reduce risk share a discussion, concern or conversation NOT the content<br>
