Introduction to the Safeguarding Code
The Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts recognises clubs or providers in England who have demonstrated that they have reached and maintained good safeguarding standards. British Taekwondo support the Code and will support our clubs who can work towards attaining recognition.
The scheme empowers parents/carers and educational establishments to make informed decisions when selecting a club for their child/children, young people or adults in their care.
Why should I apply for this mark?
The Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts “mark” has been created so that parents/carers and educational establishments can clearly identify who has successfully signed up to the Safeguarding Code.
Those who have been awarded the “mark” can use the logo on their promotional material (including website, social media), their governing documents, policies and procedures, as well as their official stationery.
How do I apply?
In order to assist you with your application the Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts have a suite of templates that are available for you to use and these can be found in the Help and Support section of their website.
Alternatively, if you have your own documents or wish to use British Taekwondo supplied documents then please feel free to use them!
