Child safeguarding awareness is essential for most medical careers and forms an important part of the medical student undergraduate curriculum at the University of Bristol. At South Bristol Academy, this is currently delivered via a half-day core workshop on child protection, but students often have no experience of the practical application of child protection in the workplace.South Bristol Academy recently introduced a paediatric simulation training day for fourth-year medical students; we added a simulated child protection scenario into this training day to assess its use in teaching undergraduates about child safeguarding.Child protection is a challenging area of paediatric practice and we hypothesised that simulation-based safeguarding training might provide students with an opportunity for experiential and immersive learning. Simulated child protection scenarios have been used to teach paediatric trainees and affiliated members of healthcare staff about child safeguarding,2 and there is evidence that simulation is effective when used to teach healthcare professionals about child protection,3 but there is as yet no published literature on its use in teaching undergraduate students.A total of 118 fourth-year medical students rotating through paediatrics attended the simulation day in groups of 6–9 over a 9-month period.
