Great course

Very clear and easy to follow, thank you

Great content and easy to follow

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a vey sensitive topic as the perception is that it is culture or religion and done to be pure makes it seen as not harmful and good for females. I found the content was clear and informative. It was highlighted the lack of medical benefits and the severe health complications associated with the practice. Additionally, it was emphasized the importance of reporting suspicions to protect the health and rights of girls and women. Great statistics and data on FGM helped underscore the urgency and scale of the issue. Highlighting global initiatives in the UK and organisations working to end FGM was very clear. The further information on where to find support or how to report FGM is very helpful for me should I need more guidance.

Clear definition, legal status and effect on girls.

The most informative training I’ve ever had on FGM. No shying away from facts; just straight talking. However, recommended action seems contrary to other Safeguarding situations as it did not state that your first action, after becoming concerned, should be to alert the DSL. Instead, it seemed to suggest the possibility of engaging the girl and/or their family in conversation. It did not seem as though this was part of the initial disclosure. We should actually always first alert the DSL rather than engaging with them on your own.
