Hi, sorry for the late reply. If it still helps page 144 of the EYE handbook states
Reporting lines For partnership reporting to be effective, there have to be clear lines of reporting. This ensures that information is given to those who need it and that information does not go astray. It is usual, for example, for children's key persons in early years settings to share and exchange information on a day-to-day basis with parents. On the other hand, where there are concerns about a child's welfare, information will be exchanged between the early years setting's designated person and other professionals. Then page 121 offers a table where you might see similarities in who you are expected to report to in your workplace/setting. Staff member: Student on placement/ volunteer Responsibility: to follow policies or procedures and to summon further assistance in the event of an accident, incident or emergency. May need to report to: whoever is acting as placement supervisor or, in the event of an emergency, any mem,ber of staff. Staff member: member of staff with a current paediatric first aid qualification. Responsibility: to provide immediate assistance in the event of a medical emergency. They may provide direction to others - for example, ask them to call for an ambulance. May need to report to: medical teams in the event of a child needing medical attention.
