Prevent and Radicilisation

Radicalisation and Extremism

Children may be at risk from exposure to materials or influences that support or endorse terrorism and extremism.

Local Authorities and other public bodies, including (but not restricted too) schools, the police and health services, have a legal duty to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism and to provide support via the Channel programme to people who are at risk of being drawn into terrorism.

The risks posed to young people by extremism are now included within the criteria for determining whether children and young people are in need of early help, specialist support or protection.
