Parents and Carers: Protecting Your Child From Extremism and Radicalisation (2023) - Educate Against Hate

Good Morning Everyone,

Over the last few months, The Prevent Team within DfE have been working to produce a new and up-to-date resource aimed at parents and carers to inform them of Prevent and how they can help in counter-extremism efforts with young people.

The resource covers a number of areas of Prevent and Counter-Extremism, such as:

• What Prevent is
• The Channel process
• How to start difficult conversations with young people and
• Possible indicators of radicalisation in young people, among other topics

The resource is called 'Parents and carers: protecting your child from extremism and radicalisation' and is hosted on Educate Against Hate.

Parents and Carers: Protecting Your Child From Extremism and Radicalisation (2023) - Educate Against Hate Advice and guidance for parents and carers on how to protect children from extremism and radicalisation
