The safeguarding of children is paramount, and as childcare professionals, it is important to be confident that all necessary steps are taken to keep children safe and well.
The Oldham Safeguarding Children Partnership webpage provides support to professionals; parents and carers and children and young people.
The following links are intended to provide information and guidance to Early Years practitioners and managers to support working with children.
Everyone shares responsibility for safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Working together to safeguard children details what agencies must and should do to keep children safe, emphasising that effective safeguarding is achieved by putting children at the centre of the system and by every individual and agency playing their full part.
