Unit CYP3.3 Safeguarding training On the 18th February 2014 I attended Safeguarding Training at Flying Start Head Office in Camborne held by Sharon Cowburn. During the training we spoke about several items which may be important in the future when a child may be in danger of harm, another staff member could be doing something wrong and if anyone had a concern; what must they do about it? We looked at cause for concern sheets and how they worked, we had to fill one in using a case study of a girl who had marks on her body, her parent and brother speaking to her in an inappropriate way, she had been “bullying” other children at the nursery and using adult language. We were explained to the process of a cause for concern and how they are dealt with when they leave the setting and get sent to a higher person; in this case it would be Sharon. We were given handouts on how to deal with certain issues, and numbers to call if we may have an issue in the setting.
If an accident occurs in the classroom at the school, the red/yellow card system is used to summon immediate help. The first aider should tend to the child and keep the situation calm and under control and administer the required first aid. Another staff member will inform office staff what has happened and once the office staff have permission from the Head Teacher or acting head, it is their duty to call the emergency services. Other children who may have witnessed the incident must be kept calm and safe. As much accurate information as possible should be recorded so that office staff can relay this to the emergency services.

1.4 Explain why and when inquiries and serious case reviews are required and how the sharing of findings informed practice. Serious Case Reviews When a child dies (including death by suicide), and abuse or Neglect are known or suspected to be a factor in the death, local organisations should consider immediately whether there are other children at risk of harm who require safeguarding (e.g. siblings, other children in an institution where abuse is alleged). Thereafter, organisations should consider whether there are any lessons to be learnt about the ways in which they work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of children. Consequently, when a child dies in such circumstances, the Local Safeguarding Children Board (LSCB) should always conduct a Serious Case Review into the involvement with the child and family of organisations and professionals.
