On the Tuesday following the Annual Conference, COBIS will be running an Advanced Child Protection Course, delivered by Kidscape.
Below is a guide to the suggested course outline:
- Develop an advanced understanding of Child Protection issues
- Have a further opportunity to explore attitudes and values with regard to safeguarding children
- Refresh and enhance knowledge of signs and symptons of abuse
- Understand that although it is plausible for childcare practitioners to predict the likelihood of certain children being abused, more robust evidence is needed
- Understand that some children are resilient to abuse i.e. they see this as 'normal' behaviour
- Be given the knowledge and skills needed to perform the function of 'Designated Person' or 'Child Protection Officer' in their setting
- Receive information about Child Protection processes, including Child Protection conferences
- Identify good practice in working with children and families, and reflect on their setting's policies and procedures
