Highfield Level 2 Certificate in Spectator Safety (RQF)
The objective of this qualification is to confirm occupational competence and provide learners, with the knowledge, skills and understanding of spectator safety. Learners will cover topics such as:

The Highfield Level 2 Certificate in Spectator Safety (RQF) is delivered via Distance Learning online through Highfield Vault, an online ePortfolio System. Learners will require access to a suitable device (PC, Laptop) to access their course content.
Learner will be able to access a coursebook, their ePortfolio and live assessor feedback.
The Highfield Vault is an ideal learning and assessment tool as it provides a platform for learners to keep track of their progress, upload supporting evidence, all whilst receiving live feedback from their assessor.
Elements of the Level 2 Certificate in Spectator Safety (RQF) require learners to be assessed within a Stewarding Capacity at a live event to confirm occupational competence.
Any additional expenses incurred by our Trainers / Assessors (e.g. for on-site courses or assessments) will be the responsibility of the candidate undertaking training.

Course Pre-requisite requirements
In addition to the specific outcomes detailed within this specification, prior to certification, learners are required to show evidence of:
• undertaking the ACT Awareness e-learning counterterrorism training
• attending first aid training or attaining a recognised first-aid award
ACT Awareness Training
The National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) is a police unit that works alongside the Home Office to support the ‘protect and prepare’ areas of the government’s counterterrorism strategy. One of their aims is to encourage the public to recognise and report suspicious activity and behaviour. Before any learner is certificated for this qualification, they must access and complete the free NaCTSO Action Counters Terrorism (ACT) Awareness e-learning course. This award-winning and invaluable training tool will help you to understand your role in recognising and reporting suspected terrorism and what to do in the event of a terrorist attack.
First Aid Training/Basic Life Support Skills evidence
Prior to requesting certificates for completed learners, training providers will be required to ensure those learners can evidence that they have attained a recognised first-aid award (or attended training delivered by an appropriate organisation). It is the training provider’s responsibility to ensure that any certificates obtained by the learner are valid and in date, and to keep records of the first aid training undertaken in the event that the evidence is requested of them for quality assurance purposes by Highfield Qualifications. A list of recognised First Aid qualifications and training is available in the Assessment Strategy for this qualification.
ID requirements
It is the responsibility of the centre to have systems in place to ensure that the person taking an assessment is indeed the person they are claiming to be. All centres are therefore required to ensure that each learner’s identification is checked before they undertake the assessment. We will only accept the following:
- a valid passport (any nationality)
- a signed UK photocard driving licence
- valid warrant card issued by HM forces or the police
- another photographic ID card, e.g. employee ID card, student ID card, travel card, etc.
If a learner is unable to produce any of the forms of photographic identification listed above, a centre may accept another form of identification containing a signature, for example, a credit card.
Qualification Delivery Guidance:
The total qualification time for this qualification (mandatory units only) is 240 hours, of which 73 are recommended as guided learning hours.
TQT is an estimate of the total number of hours it would take an average learner to achieve and demonstrate the necessary level of attainment to be awarded with a qualification, both under direct supervision (forming guided learning hours) and without supervision (all other time). TQT and GLH values are advisory and assigned to a qualification as guidance.
Learners are expected to demonstrate competence to the standards required over a period of time. Therefore, to ensure validity, evidence should be naturally occurring and collected through performance in the workplace.
It is acknowledged not all employer workplaces are the same, therefore assessment conditions may not be identical. However, to safeguard the integrity of the qualification and ensure a robust and consistent approach to assessment the Assessor must ensure the assessment conditions reflect, as far as possible, those to which the learner is expected to work.

Only in circumstances where it is difficult to collect evidence through a real work environment situation, and is deemed acceptable in specific unit guidance, may simulation be permitted.
Simulation should only be undertaken:
- where events either never or infrequently occur and yet a high degree of confidence is needed that the learner would act appropriately, for example: dealing with a fire, health and safety activities that fall outside, or are secondary to, normal practices; or
- where events happen frequently but where there is a risk of harm to the learner or client in a real situation, for example, dealing with relationship difficulties and conflicts (although evidence from direct observation should be used where possible).
Units where simulation is permitted
- Deal with incidents at spectator events
