Guest Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Can anyone tell me if it is correct that you have to attend a Child Protection course every 3 years Quote
AnonyMouse_7317 Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 You would need to check with your local Early years but I always update my CP training at least every 1 year but just recently have done it twice in a year with the LSCB changes and CAF training. I personally feel that with the way regulations change and with Child protection this is an area I like to keep up to date with for my own peace of mind. Not sure what the legal requirement for Updating CP is but sure someone will come along and tell you. Shelley Quote
Guest Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 I understood it was a requirement to stay up-to-date via whatever means accessible (internet, early years info received, ofsted docs, child protection sites etc) and a recommendation to update training every 3 years but I may be wrong.....

AnonyMouse_705 Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Not sure about the exact frequency but we were also advised recently to go on a course to update ourselves, probably been about 3 years. Ofsted last week were certainly very hot on questioning most staff on the signs of abuse. Quote
Guest Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 It's 3 years here - and the waiting list is massive Quote
AnonyMouse_3735 Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 our staff did a 3 yr update last year and it had exactly the same content, scenarios, advice, etc etc as the last one they went to so much so they knew what was coming next... we can only hope that the next one changes with the times!
