Prevent

Prevent is one strand of the Government’s counter terrorism Strategy, CONTEST. Its main aim is to prevent people from becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism.
 
When operating this policy Activate uses the following accepted Governmental definition of extremism which is:
 
‘Vocal or active opposition to fundamental British values, including democracy, the rule of law,
individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs; and/or calls
for the death of members of our armed forces, whether in this country or overseas.’

 
The PREVENT strategy has three clear objectives:

  • Terrorist ideas should be identified and challenged.
  • Vulnerable people should be supported and protected from becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism.
  • Communities, institutions and the Governments should all work together to tackle the problem of extremism.

Activate identifies, assesses and develops our safeguarding procedures around the four key areas in relation to the PREVENT agenda. These key areas include:

  • Leadership and accountability structures.
  • Training for staff, SMT’s and governing bodies.
  • Reporting and referral routes (including Channel).
  • Broad and balanced curriculum that helps protect vulnerable adults against extremism.
