A NEW scheme aiming to make children and young people in Wales more aware of the signs of child sexual exploitation and how to stay safe has been launched by the Welsh Government and Barnados Cymru.

Launching the Hidden project, education minister Huw Lewis said: “There is a strong appetite for strengthening the education response to safeguarding and child protection arrangements, which I greatly welcome. This is a key priority which underpins the delivery of all education provision in Wales.”
