According to Tassoni, (2010) it is important to look out for signs and symptons of child abuse or if a child is at risk to any harm. The sooner this information is recognised and passed on the sooner the problem can be resolved.

The lines of responsibility to ensure that children are protected is under the {DHSSPS} Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety this department gives guidance to the 4 local Health and Social Services Boards and is known as the regional policy.

All services and agencies have guidelines which help them to work together to improve safeguarding.

All policies and procedures in my setting have clear aspects that outline safeguarding, the policies and procedures should include,
health and safety,
child protection,
contact with children and performing personal care,
outings,
visitors to the setting.
{Tassoni}

When caring for children it is the responsibility of the individual concerned to ensure their health and safety.

There has been well documented failings in the field of Health and Safety for children in the past however the installation of the guidelines is designed to ensure such failings are kept in the past.

An example of such a failing would be the tragic case of Baby P.

Risk assessments are carried out to ensure that children are not exposed to any danger in there setting. At my work placement the school is replacing their entrance gate to ensure that no unauthorized person will entry the playground or building unnoticed

i would be looking for about 800 to a 100 more words on this!!! forget tassoni you need to be quoting law and guidance not a textbook.

ANALYSE. what does this mean? it doesnt mean describe it means

Break the topic down into separate parts and examine each part
Show how the main ideas are related and why they are important

you haven't done this so far.

you need to look at the nationals guidelines ( LCSB ECM etc) and then how these are interrelated and implemented locally good and bad.

you then need to apply them to your daily work. policies and procedures, which you have begun to do but more as you have just listed them. analyse their implementation. you are given further guidance on the unit pages after the AC and LOs.
