The trainer brought up examples that made the participants uncomfortable, like frequently mentioning a sexual assault case and female genital mutilation. he made a lot of generalizations of protected groups and said autistic people need more time to think and processes information. He wasn’t knowledgeable of models and processes of safeguarding practices and heavily relied on audience input. He admitted he wasn’t familiar with the presentation slides and was going off of his own experiences. He skipped the slides that covered safeguarding in higher education to a group of participants who work in higher education.

I liked the personal interaction and viewpoints. It felt very friendly and not at all pressured.

Print outs of the PPT slides, some were illegible as the font size too small

Overall, the session did not meet my expectations. The trainer appeared to have limited knowledge of some key areas, and the content wasn’t tailored to a higher education environment. Several important elements were skipped entirely, such as boundaries with students in the workplace, which is essential for our teams. When questions were asked, the trainer often appeared unsure and tended to give unclear or inaccurate answers rather than acknowledging when he didn’t know something. This made it difficult to feel confident in the information being delivered. I believe the trainer would benefit from further development before facilitating future sessions, especially for a group with specialist responsibilities.

Steven is an exceptional safeguarding trainer. He explained every slide clearly and in detail, and he actively engaged all participants in meaningful discussions. Thanks to his teaching, my understanding of safeguarding has greatly improved.
