What's in store for our attendees?
Guardians, schools, and sector experts will come together to tackle the critical question: how can we ensure the best possible support for international students?
Our keynote speaker, Josie Collier — Independent Reviewer and Safeguarding Consultant with extensive experience leading Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews — will share her hard-hitting findings on what can go wrong, especially when a student is in crisis, and how we can avoid these failures.
Michelle Nightingale — Assistant Chief Nurse for Safeguarding and Learning Disability at Great Ormond Street Hospital — will also join us, bringing her expert perspective on safeguarding and the complexities of student well-being.
Jo Lloyd — Service Manager & Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) at Oxfordshire County Council — will explain the LADO’s role in safeguarding students, how to work with them effectively and when to raise welfare concerns.
Together, we’ll explore real-life cases, challenge existing practices, and make sure everyone involved is aligned with best practice. Expect to leave with clear, actionable strategies.
