Risk assessment in the school
A Talk by Juan Diego Oquendo (Senior Child Safeguarding Adviser, Keeping Children Safe)
About this Talk
Schools and learning centres are common spaces where children suffer a range of abuse perpetrated by staff, partners and other children. We will cover the most common risks to safeguarding children in an educational context, from physical abuse to corporal punishment, including power dynamics between teachers and children, and what mitigation strategies we can develop and implement to reduce those risks.
