How parents and out-of-school settings can take part in the Protect Duty consultation

There are only a few weeks left to take part in the ‘Protect Duty’ consultation.

First launched on 26 February and due to close on 2 July 2021, the consultation seeks views on how publicly accessible locations – including out-of-school settings – can improve their security and organisation preparedness. 

The consultation will seek views on:

 • who would a Duty apply to?

• what would a proposed Duty require stakeholders to do?

• how should compliance work?

• how would Government support those affected by a Duty?

It’s important to get a wide range of views to inform the development of the Duty; anyone who has an interest can take part in the consultation. When you’ve completed the form, please remember to click the ‘submit’ button, otherwise your response will not be received.
