Hi, welcome to silkysteps this quote is from page 119 of the Heinmann handbook - on amazon.co.uk

Quote:

Parents leave children in your care with the expectationthat they can trust you and your colleagues to keep their children from harm.

Failing to keep children safe may breach your legal duties and the setting's professional values.

For 2.4. Describe the roles and responsibilities of the different organisations that may be involved when a child or young person has been abused or harmed the search page will help find other threads and posts

The 3.3 unit lists different organisations for 2.4 as
