Help

[Guest]

what curent legislation and government initiatives apply when supporting a reception aged boy who has witnessed domestic violence? how will they support the family and setting? have mentioned children act 1989/2004, safeguarding,, UN convention, eyfs but cant seem to say how they support family and setting n the right context in desperate need of help. I have manage to waffle to the extent of 1,200 words

Many thanks in anticipation Lorraine

I'm not sure that you do use a CAF for any kind of abuse - in my training we were told not to as you follows your local board's procedures.

 

You can check this out by reading the managers and practioners guides (p.20) here.

Have you referred to what to do if you're worried a child is being abused?

This would be a Section 17 safeguarding referral, I think? Like others have said, check your Local Safegaurding Board referral procedures - there should be some info on the legislation there.
