Description & Learning objectives

This course aims to enable carers to identify girls at risk of female genital mutilation. Once a girl at risk has been identified, the course will cover what steps you can take to assist those at risk. The course material deals with issues posed by FGM at all stages of a girl or woman’s life.

The key areas of the course are as follows:

  • To understand the social and cultural aspects of FGM
  • To know the health consequences of FGM
  • To be aware of legislation relevant to FGM
  • To be able to recognise the indicators of FGM
  • To understand managing FGM disclosure and safeguarding
  • To know how to take appropriate action if you have concerns, including appropriately reporting concerns safely and seeking advice

 

This course is CPD accredited and meets the Children’s Home Quality Standards as outlined in The Children’s Homes Regulations (England) 2015 and Children’s Homes Quality Standards 2015.

It is also tailored to where you live in the UK, adhering to each country’s own individual regulators - namely: Ofsted, The Care Inspectorate (Wales), The Care Inspectorate (Scotland), and The Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority (Northern Ireland).

If you have 5 or more learners who require this training, you might like to consider our face-to-face option instead. 

Because each of our courses is created by a specialist within this sector, we have the expertise to tailor any course to your specific needs. You can even arrange for your own documentation policies or procedures to be included in your Learning Management System.
