Safeguarding is an umbrella term and covers many more aspects than just child protection.
Child Protection is protecting children from identified risks – originally focused on abuse at home now a wider concept to include bullying, abuse through new technologies etc
Safeguarding extends child protection to include preventing harm and promoting the well being of children.
Safeguarding is:
- Protecting children from maltreatment.
- Preventing impairment of a child’s health or development.
- Ensuring that children are growing up in circumstances consistent with the provisions of safe and effective care.
- Create opportunities to enable children to have optimum life chances in adulthood.
