Early Years

Last updated:

This month, we’re focusing on everyday safeguarding — the small actions that make a big difference.

Week 1 - How should staff respond if a child repeatedly plays out worrying themes (violence, fear, inappropriate roles) during role play?

Week 2 - Information is brought to light about an existing employee’s behaviour outside of work that involves illegal activity - what process do you follow?

Week 3 - What are the early warning indicators that a child may be experiencing grooming?

Week 4 - What should you do if you notice a pattern of unexplained injuries on a child, even if each has been previously “explained”?
