What We’re Working On: Policy Analysis and Consultation

·

At Protect and Teach, we don’t want to wait until policy becomes law before examining what it could mean for children, families, schools and professionals.

In this short video, Jennifer Thetford-Kay, our Designated Safeguarding Lead, explains two major areas of work currently underway: our analysis of the Draft Conversion Practices Bill for England and Wales and our examination of Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026.

We also explain why consultations and policy reviews matter; and why informed participation gives parents, professionals and the wider public an opportunity to have their voices heard.

If there is a consultation, proposed legislation or education policy you think we should be examining, we’d like to hear from you.
