Safeguarding & Child Protection Online Principal Refresher Training
Child sexual exploitation (CSE) is a type of sexual abuse. It happens when a child or young person is coerced, manipulated or deceived into sexual activity in exchange for things that they may need or want like gifts, drugs, money, status and affection. Children and young people are often tricked into believing they're in a loving and consensual relationship so the sexual activity may appear consensual. This is called grooming and is a type of abuse. They may trust their abuser and not understand that they're being abused. CSE does not always involve physical contact, and can also occur through the use of technology.
Join us to understand CSE, and how to support a pupil and their parents/carers once it is known that CSE is suspected or confirmed.

The ‘Power to Change Campaign’ is part of the NI Strategy to End Violence Against Woman and Girls (VAWG). The campaign was launched by the PSNI in January 2025 in collaboration with the Department of Justice and the Executive Office. The recorded webinar and the learning resources provided for use with staff and young people are designed to fit in with the preventative curriculum. The aim of the campaign is to invite and encourage all men and boys to check and change their attitudes, beliefs and behaviours towards women and girls; to challenge their peers, and to have the confidence to step in safely to put a stop to behaviour that might put their friends at risk of offending. The campaign also hopes to instigate conversations about the influence of social media – and help to educate about the powerful algorithms that are behind the pushed microdoses of misogynistic and harmful messaging.
The webinar was hosted on MS Teams and introduced by Therese Moran (CPSS). It is delivered by Lindsay Fisher (PSNI Detective Superintendent and PSNI lead for the campaign), with an input from Jane McCarthy from The Executive Office.
