Safeguarding

Safeguarding can be summarised as:

• protecting children and learners from maltreatment
• preventing impairment of children’s and learners’ health or development
• ensuring that children and learners are growing up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care
• undertaking that role so as to enable those children and learners to have optimum life chances and to enter adulthood successfully.
