One of the most serious duties that education and care staff have is the obligation to act when they reasonably suspect that a child is in need of protection from abuse or neglect.
All early childhood education and care professionals are considered ‘mandatory reporters’ under the Child Protection Act 1999, and are therefore legally required to report to Child Safety where they reasonably suspect that a child:
- has suffered, is suffering, or is at risk of suffering significant harm caused by sexual or physical abuse
- may not have a parent who is willing and able to protect them from harm.
This is a big responsibility to have! To prepare us for this responsibility, this course will assist by providing you the know-how of:
- Empowerment to act: equip yourself with the skills to identify and support at-risk children and young people
- Skill enhancement: improve your observational skills and ability to ask the right questions, fostering trust and effective intervention
- Professional compliance: learn to act within legal and organisational frameworks, ensuring you meet your duty of care responsibilities
