Sexual Harassment: Understanding the Latest Legal Changes in Education

Watch the video below from our webinar held on 7 October 2024. 

As a school, you have a legal and moral obligation to create a safe and respectful workplace for all employees. Whilst the education sector is very good at having policies in place, with new legislation on the horizon, it will be crucial to review all policies and procedures to ensure they are in line with the new law, as well as knowing what further steps need to be taken. 

This webinar provided essential insights and practical guidance on:

  • Understanding the new legislation: Stay informed on your responsibilities and key changes which impact the education sector.
  • Preventing harassment: Learn what your school should implement to create a harassment-free institution.
  • Managing and responding to complaints: Understand your legal obligations and best practices for handling allegations.
  • Identifying and reducing risk: Identify risk among the different roles across the school and work with employees to create effective and accessible reporting systems.
