Course Overview
The role of a teacher in safeguarding goes beyond just classroom learning and involves being aware of a range of safeguarding risks and warning signs.
Teachers are responsible for students' welfare and are ideally placed to notice when something goes wrong.
The Department for Education states that "everybody who comes into contact with children and their families has a role to play in safeguarding children.
One of the key roles that a teacher plays in safeguarding is adopting a child centred approach in their work. This means that the needs and best interests of the child are always considered and often prioritised when making decisions about their lives or working with their family to find the best outcome.
