Sexual Behaviours Traffic Light Tool training – for professionals

Brook’s nationally recognised Sexual Behaviours Traffic Light Tool and training provides a highly visible; multi-agency response that helps professionals to identify; understand and respond appropriately to sexual behaviours in young people. The training equips professionals to make consistent and informed decisions that neither stigmatise nor criminalise young people; and by using the Tool to identify sexual behaviours as green; orange or red; professionals across different agencies can work to the same criteria when making decisions and protect children and young people with a unified approach. Course participants will learn about healthy sexual development; understand key laws relating to sexual behaviour and gain knowledge on enabling robust and meaningful conversations around harmful sexual behaviours that cause concern. Both the Tool and the course are intended to complement existing safeguarding processes and should not be considered a replacement for organisational safeguarding procedures or assessment frameworks.
