Incident Reporting and Investigation

Behaviour-related incidents can and do happen at every school, but they aren’t always easy to judge. A situation that seems minor at first can quickly become more serious, especially if there are patterns, risks, or wider concerns involved. Knowing when to act, what to record, and who to inform is essential for keeping pupils and staff safe. This course will help you recognise when an incident must be reported, understand your responsibilities, and follow clear processes for recording and responding appropriately.
