What’s it all about?

This course will equip you with a detailed understanding of how to recognise and prevent radicalisation and extremism, the principles of safeguarding, the Prevent duty and its importance in society, and the importance of online safety and British Values.

In 2017, there were 412 arrests for terrorism-related offences. With issues of human rights, hate crime and democracy becoming ever more prevalent in the UK and the world, it is more important than ever to be informed on the measures that can be taken to help prevent terrorism and promote safeguarding and British Values in society.

All students are required to complete the online initial assessment document prior to enrolment.

There are no specific entry requirements, however, learners should have a minimum of a Level 1 in English and Maths, or the equivalent.

This qualification is suitable for learners aged19 years or above.

Study level Cost Additional fees
19+ Free (subject to eligibility checks) There are no additional costs if you meet the eligibility criteria, which will be explained during enrolment.

You will be added to our Equal platform, where you will be able to access all the learning resources and assessments. You'll also be allocated your own personal tutor, who you can contact throughout your studies.

You will be required to work through a series of tasks and activities designed to reinforce the learning process and demonstrate your knowledge. Your personal tutor will then assess your work and provide you with constructive feedback for each unit.

It is essential that all learners are assessed in English, unless the qualification specification specifically states that another language may be accepted. This also applies to all learner evidence presented for external quality assurance purposes.

This qualification is assessed by internally set and marked assessments, subject to external quality assurance. All learning outcomes that assess knowledge and understanding (usually beginning with ‘understand’ or ‘know how to’) may be assessed through internally set and marked written assignments, tasks, records of oral or written questions, workbooks, or other portfolio evidence.

Materials for internal assessment must be submitted for approval before use and must be mapped to the relevant unit, learning outcome and assessment criteria.

All learning outcomes and assessment criteria must be met to achieve a pass - there is no grading.

Each unit within the qualification may have its own assessment requirements, assessment guidance and range:

- Assessment requirements are conditions of assessment that must be met by learners when undertaking their assessments to achieve the unit or meet a particular assessment criterion
- Assessment guidance are areas that could be covered by learners in their assessments to achieve the unit or particular assessment criteria but are not mandatory
- Useful websites are resources that could be used by centres for the delivery of the qualification and by learners to support them with the completion of the unit

You should be able to work at a Level 1 or above in Functional Skills.
