About this course

Building on child protection awareness

This course is for learners who already have foundational safeguarding knowledge and want to examine more complex situations. The curriculum reviews core principles before considering vulnerability, abuse and neglect scenarios, referral processes and the responsibilities of professionals working together.

Information sharing and reflective practice receive their own attention. These topics make the course relevant to nursery managers, teachers, social workers and others whose roles involve decisions beyond an initial awareness of concerns.

For an introduction to recognising and reporting concerns, start with the curriculum for Child Protection Awareness. Professionals comparing Scottish guidance training can also review the separate NGCPS 2021 course, updated 2023.
