Hi, a warm welcome to the site

To help get this into perspective can you ask your setting/placement for a copy of their safeguarding policy and any other publication that they have that states/promotes how they intend to safeguard/look after the children in their care? then you'll have in your hands how important they feel safeguarding is.

CYP Unit 3.3 outcome 2 criteria 2.1 Explain the importance of safeguarding children and young people

Page 115 of the Heinemann level 3 handbook on amazon.co.uk begins by saying 'Far too many children and young people suffer abuse or neglect at the hands of their parents or carers. Research shows the scale of this, and reports of children dying as a result of or accidents are all too often in the news. The statistics for the amount of abuse in the UK is worrying to say the least'

NSPCC keeping children safe and abuse statistics for 2014

There are regulations, acts, frameworks and codes of practice to research for this unit, some are newer than those listed in the 2010 level 3 handbook.

Wherever possible check with your course provider to see what documents you need to be reading.

Framework for the home nation that you work in will contain safeguarding and welfare requirements.

Hi i am new to this post, i am really enjoying this course and really motivated on finding information and completing my assessments.
I have one question though if someone could please help
-Give a description of Working Together to Safeguard Children 2013

[Ruthierhyme]

Hi welcome to the site, you can find the archived 2013 working together to safeguard children on this gov.uk link.

It might be worth you contacting your course provider to see if you need to be reading through the more recent 2015 publication xx

So you can give your description read about who it's for and what it sets out.

Best wishes xx

How much on average do you write for 2.1??

[MissBee1986]

I'm stuck on 2.3. I've already handed it in but I need to say what plans encourage partnership. So far I have: partnership working in the context of safeguarding means working with all of the different organisations to help a child that is being abused or neglected. Each organisation has a different expertise or a role to play so vulnerable children will need help from the health service, school, social care and the justice system. A child who is suffering needs help from all of these services, not just yours. You all need to work in an effective partnership. Police, doctors, teachers, health visitors and social services all need to have the same information to be able to help.
How do I answer my tutors question? I think my brain is fried lol

Hi 👋 I’m doing level 2 cypw, currently on section 4 (unit 11) in the folder and I’m struggling with the first two questions-

1: identify a current, national piece of legislation relevant to safeguarding children and young people’s welfare.
2: identify two current local policies, procedures or guidance in relation to safeguarding the welfare of children and young people.

If anyone could steer me in the right direction I would really appreciate it ☺️
