Section 26 of the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015 places a duty on schools prevent people from being drawn into terrorism. This is known as the Prevent strategy, which aims to reduce the threat to the UK from terrorism by stopping people from becoming radicalised, supporting terrorism, or becoming terrorists. As a school, our duty is to ensure we understand any risks of radicalisation and take steps to minimise any such risks.
We would like to make you aware of the Government website “Educate Against Hate” (https://educateagainsthate.com) This website offers practical advice about protecting children from radicalisation and extremism and is based on resources and guidance drawn up by the government and charities including the NSPCC and Childnet.
The DfE has set up a telephone helpline (0207 340 7264) and an email address (counter.extremism@education.gsi.gov.uk) to enable people to raise concerns directly with the DfE
Please review the PDF and video below to support your understanding of the Prevent Duty and the work we are responsible for in school.
