The Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015, which came into force in February 2015, now places a statutory duty on all schools to prevent people being drawn into terrorism.

Schools are now required to address violent and non-violent extremism through creating safe spaces in which children and young people can understand and discuss terrorism including extremist ideas, and learn how to challenge them. Consequently, this webinar will:

  • Help practitioners understand what is meant by extremism in the context of the Government’s Prevent strategy and the new public duty on schools;
  • Explore Ofsted requirements for schools to promote and support:
    – Fundamental British values
    – Behaviour and safety of pupils in school
  • Highlight effective ways to facilitate classroom discussions about extremism and extreme views;
  • To consider best practice in challenging risks associated with extremism;
  • Explore the risks in challenging extremist behaviour shown by pupils – including how to deal with parents.

We look forward to seeing you there!
