Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSiE)

The updated Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance was published on 1 September.

When the Department for Education ran its Safeguarding Children in Schools and Colleges: A Call for Evidence (March–June 2024), the intention was to use that evidence to shape future, more substantive iterations of KCSiE. At the time, the consultation page noted that only technical changes would be made in 2024, with a wider update expected for 2025. However, the 2025 version has once again been limited to technical changes, and does not contain the broader revisions that had been anticipated.
