Safeguarding In Higher Education - Part 2 | Challenges In Implementation: Annelli Peavot

In the second part of our focus on safeguarding in higher education, host Chris East is joined once again by Annelli Peavot, Head of Safeguarding at Canterbury University, to examine the biggest challenges universities face—from limited resources and inconsistent frameworks to cultural sensitivities and financial pressures.They discuss the most common safeguarding concerns, including substance misuse, domestic violence, and mental health struggles, and why universities often find themselves on the back foot when it comes to supporting students effectively.Plus, is induction week a missed opportunity? Many students withhold key information out of fear it could jeopardise their place—so how can universities build trust from day one?Join us as we explore the realities of safeguarding in higher education and the changes needed to better protect our students.-----Producers of this episode: Chris East, Leah EastHost of this episode: Chris EastFind out more about ⁠⁠⁠⁠Cornerstone Safeguarding⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect With Us:Follow Chris East on ⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Leah East on LinkedInSafeguarding Redefined is brought to you by Cornerstone Safeguarding, providing expert consultancy, supervision, and training to help organisations better protect young people and at-risk individuals.
