Unit 333.3.2. Explain policies and procedures that are in place to protect children, young people and adults who work with them.

In every organisation there are policies and procedures that the workforce has to follow, within the Education services we are no different and our policies and procedures are in place to protect both the young people and the people working with them.

Legislation, guidelines, policies and procedures affecting the safeguarding of children and young people would be:- * UN Convention on the rights of the Child * Education Act 2002 * Children Act 2004 and Childcare 2000 * Human Rights1998 * Health and Safety Executive (HSE) * Common Assessment Framework * Special Educational Needs (SEN) code of practice 2001 and Disability Discrimination Act 1995/2005 * CRB checks * Escorting visitors * Attendance * Disability act * Drug and PSHE * The Data Protection Act 1998. * Freedom of information Act 2000

CRB checks have now changed the new version is now called Disclosures and applied for through vetting and barring service this is in line with national guidelines and everyone who works in the school has to comply.

All visitors have to be escorted whilst on school premises and they have to be signed in at reception, where we have a list of all our schools first aiders, and wear a visitor’s badge. If we see anyone we do not recognise without a badge we always ask who they are and what their business is within the school.

As part of moving our school forwards and improving the student’s grades we have a lot of interventions of one to one it is police to leave the door open and to sit furthest away from the door so that the student’s path to the door is not obstructed.
