Protecting their welfare goes beyond protecting an individual child, the welfare and safety of children is a political and social concern. ‘In England, safeguarding and promoting children’s welfare is defined by the government as ‘protecting children from maltreatment, preventing impairment of children’s health or development, ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care’ (Department of Education, 2013).

The term ‘child protection’ is increasingly replaced by that of safeguarding. Safeguarding is a broader definition of the range of ways in which adults and professionals who work with the child need to act to manage child protection issues. Each school must have in place procedures which are designed to proactively prevent risk of harm to the welfare of children and young people rather than simply respond to concerns noted by staff.
