Safeguarding Colleagues
Welcome back from the Halloween midterm break. We hope you had time to relax and recharge your batteries.
Here are some resources we wish to bring to your attention – we hope there will be something for every school / setting:
- The Children and Young Peoples’ Strategic Partnership (CYPSP) has put together a guide to locality based targeted resources and practical support for families and children struggling with the cost of living crisis. It will be updated on a regular basis and we will ensure that we forward it on receipt. The guide is attached.
The CYPSP has also updated its resource pack for children and young people and is also attached.
- The Family Support Hubs Newlsetter also focuses on the cost of living crisis – and could be shared out with all families: https://cypsp.hscni.net/family-support-hub-newsletter-october-2022/
PRIMARIES. CEOP’s thinkuknow online safety tookits for 5s-7s and 8s-10s are really helpful in ensuring that children understand healthy and unhealthy behaviours within online and offline friendships and relationships.
