Hi, would you say it's easy to report colleagues for poor practice? Consider the conflict you might feel recognising that someone's poor practices are damaging a child/ren yet not wanting to do anything that might jeopardise the working relationships you have with others in the setting, all at the same time as knowing it is your responsibility to safeguard every child placed in your care, protecting their right to be safe, healthy and free from harm.
Do you have a copy of your setting's Whistleblowing Policy?
Where and to whom would you report poor practice in your setting?
The effectiveness of discovering how to report poor practice means you will be empowered but you may also feel vulnerable. Once you know what's involved with the process you'll have knowledge that can be shared with others, enabling you to promote safeguarding, child protection, confidence and courage.
