Prevent
The purpose of Prevent is to safeguard and support vulnerable people to stop them from becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism.
Prevent is one of the four core elements of the Government’s CONTEST strategy for countering terrorism, it is built around four strands, each with a number of objectives.
Pursue – to stop terrorist attacks in this country and against our interests overseas. This means to:
- Detect and investigate threats at the earliest possible stage
- Disrupt terrorist activity before it can endanger the public
- And, where ever possible, prosecute those responsible
Protect – to strengthen our protection against a terrorist attack in the UK or against our interests overseas and so reduce our vulnerability.
Prepare – to mitigate the impact of a terrorist attack where that attack cannot be stopped. This includes work to bring a terrorist attack to an end and to increase our resilience so we can recover from its aftermath.
Prevent – to stop people becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism.
On 1 July 2015 the Prevent duty (section 26) of The Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015 came into force. This duty places the responsibility on local authorities and schools/colleges to have due regard to the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism.
New Collaborative Learning Trust is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all its students. As a college we recognise that safeguarding against radicalisation is as important as safeguarding against any other vulnerability.
All staff are expected to uphold and promote the fundamental principles of British values, including democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect, and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. We believe that children should be given the opportunity to explore diversity and understand Britain as a multi-cultural society; everyone should be treated with respect whatever their race, gender, sexuality, religious belief, special need, or disability.
As part of our commitment to safeguarding and child protection we fully support the government’s Prevent Strategy.
Staff have completed the DfE’s Channel General Awareness training. Channel is a programme which focuses on providing support at an early stage to people who are identified as being vulnerable to being drawn into terrorism. Staff have also undertaken WRAP (Workshop Raising Awareness of Prevent) Training alongside statutory safeguarding training as well as receiving regular updates and briefings around prevent.
What we do if there is a concern
If we have a concern about a particular student/family, we will follow the colleges normal safeguarding procedures, including discussing with the Designated Safeguarding Lead (s), the local prevent officer and where deemed necessary, with children’s social care.
The Prevent Lead at New College Doncaster is Helen Jackson, Vice Principal: Achievement and Support. Should you have any concerns about a student and/or their family please contact – Helen.jackson@nclt.ac.uk 01302 976777
Please see below link for further information around prevent in the Wakefield district including how to make a referral if you are worried about someone.
If concerns are outside of college hours or term time, please ensure the referral included in the link is completed to avoid any delay passing on information.

Resources for Parents:
Lockdown
All schools and colleges now have to have a Lockdown procedure in addition to a fire evacuation procedure. Schools and colleges have a duty of care to both staff and students, so there should not only be effective systems and procedures in place, but regular practices should be conducted so that all staff and students know what to do in any situation.
When practices are carried out staff and students will be made aware well in advance and of the actions they should take.
A Lockdown siren would be initiated for a number of reasons, such as:
- A serious disturbance within the local community
- A chemical spillage or gas leak
- An intruder on site
In the event of an actual lockdown, staff will communicate promptly with parents.
