Publisher Description:
Schools are compelled by law to ensure children are safe. This book lays out the knowledge and guidance schools need in order to identify and respond to safeguarding concerns, in accordance with statutory requirements and Ofsted. It outlines what good practice looks like in staffing practices, including training, recruitment processes, staff inductions as well as protocol when a concern is raised. It explores the range of issues that may affect children such as harmful cultural behaviours, child sexual exploitation, child-on-child abuse and domestic abuse. This knowledge is critical to enable staff to make informed decisions about potential risk to a child's welfare. The book describes what staff should do when making a referral and clearly explains cases when referrals should and should not be made. A hands-on guide packed with case examples, this book should be read by all designated safeguarding leads, headteachers, teachers, governors as well as all other school staff and those working in other child care settings.
