The Child Protection and Safeguarding Consultancy
provides specialist advice, support, training and consultancy to schools, colleges, local authorities and other children's services. The CPSC differs from most companies working in the child protection field, in that our expertise is rooted firmly in the education sector.  It is our belief that schools are the front line protectors of children and young people and that the critical role of school staff in child protection deserves greater recognition and support.
