Safeguarding your commercial lets 2025

Home » Safeguarding your commercial lets 2025

Are you ready for the new academic year and the Safeguarding requirements and updates for your events, staff recruitment and commercial lets?
This training course will be led by Jane Bee, the SEA Safeguarding Advisor and includes Adult safeguarding.
Your safeguarding culture is only as strong as your weakest link. Where does your responsibility for safeguarding begin and end in terms of your commercial activities? Is it good enough to simply understand the lessors’ DBS status? While safeguarding is certainly the lessor’s duty, it is your responsibility to satisfy yourself that those using your property have safeguarding in place and that risks are identified and minimised. What are the questions you need to ask in order to do this for each of your lettings?

I return to the office after every one of the SEA events that I attend and immediately refer to my notes, implementing something new or developmental in my department.

Hannah Dwyer, Head of Commercial, Cheltenham Ladies’ College
The launch of the Sports Chapter was an important milestone – I look forward to networking with many colleagues around the country who run equally unique school sports centres. Sharing issues and opportunities while providing solutions to industry challenges, make this an exciting prospect.

Alex Lloyd, Manager, Tonbridge School Centre
In the short period of time that we have been a member of SEA its already proving invaluable. The courses are excellent and also very inspiring to see the potential our Enterprises has when listening to schools already very well established.

Kizzy Hazlewood, Events and Venue Officer, Kimbolton School
The recent SEA Advisory meeting, the first I've attended, was great and exactly the sort of level and collegiate feel I hoped for.

Julie thomson, Commercial Manager, Yarrells Preparatory School
Active professional networking is vital to our commercial activities. The SEA brings people together and builds long-term relationships as well as a good level of trust and support over time. The biggest advantages of being a SEA member are to get fresh ideas, strengthen business connections, raise your profile in your own school environment, gain more knowledge and most importantly get advice and support.

Marina Kilaniotis, Head of Commercial, Highgate School.
The challenges and opportunities around generating commercial income within a school setting are unique – and without the SEA, we wouldn’t have the same level of organised peer support to share experiences, explore new perspectives, exchange best practice, and to encourage one another. The SEA adds real value year-round.
