What is the purpose of safeguarding children? Safeguarding is the action that is taken to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm. The purpose of safeguarding is to protect children from abuse and maltreatment and prevent harm to children's health or development.

How can safeguarding meet children's individual needs in education? Safeguarding can meet children’s individuals needs by ensuring your school has effective measures and tailored plans to promote children’s welfare, putting children at the centre of the system and protecting them from harm.

Who is responsible to safeguard children in school? Anyone who works in an educational setting has a duty to the children who attend to protect their well-being. Governors, heads of schools, Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs), teachers, teaching assistants, kitchen staff, and anybody else who works with children are all affected.

How does the Children's Act 2004 relate to safeguarding?

The Children Act 2004 is a development from the 1989 Act. The Children Act 2004 made changes and additions to the child protection framework that already existed in England to ensure that all children could achieve the rights outlined in ‘Every Child Matters’.
