Supervision Training

Supervision is only a recent term for Education and yet is mandatory in many other relationship-intense professions. We know the benefits of supervision are widely recognised and, where reflective supervision spaces are offered in school, it has a significant, positive impact on a school’s safeguarding and wider culture.

Safeguarding and child protection work is demanding and emotionally challenging and supervision provides a structure within which staff can be supported, challenged and developed. Supervision promotes the wellbeing and emotional welfare of staff, improves decision-making and, ultimately, ensures that professionals are working in the best interests of the child at all times.

Why choose BEP?
Led by Anna Robinson, Director of Mental Health at BEP and Clinical Supervisor (on behalf of Liz Rose from SoSafeguarding), this session offers a valuable opportunity to explore the role of supervision in schools. You’ll gain insights into what effective supervision looks like, how it can be implemented in your setting, and the potential barriers to its success.

The benefits:
By building the capacity for structured supervision, schools foster a healthier, more resilient workforce and a stronger, more supportive learning environment.

How is the course structured?
Session 1 is delivered online and focuses on understanding the principles of effective supervision and exploring how to overcome common barriers within your school. Session 2 is held face-to-face and provides practical, hands-on skills to help you confidently begin implementing supervision sessions in your setting.



Audience:
Headteachers and Principals
CEO’s or Safeguarding Leads across multi-academy trusts
