2. A student makes a serious (although spurious) allegation against you. As a result of the allegation, as a neutral act you are suspended from work. Until this point you were not a member of a professional association, so you quickly join one. They will be able to help you defend yourself.

Explanation

Professional associations are only able to support members who are already part of the association at the time of an alleged incident, joining after the incident will mean that they are unable to support you with this current matter

Submit
3. A student says that they need to tell you something but you have to promise that you will not tell anyone else. Having explained that you cannot do this, the student storms off saying, 'I thought you were different!' What do you do?

Explanation

It is not your job to investigate. By recording the matter we begin a chain of evidence that could be useful later if the matter involves the police.

Submit
4. Clarence (a colleague) tells you that he has received texts from a student who has made comments about his appearance and sexually suggestive comments too. What do you do?

Explanation

There are a number of concerns here. How has the student obtained his number? Has Clarence responded to any of the texts? Why is he telling you?
The matter needs to be addressed with advice from the Local Authority. It may become a Police matter, particularly if he has responded to any of the texts...there is the potential for him to be charged with grooming.

Submit

He is not keen to talk about the watch and tries to hide it from you. What do you do?

7. You have a child in the school and want to invite a friend around the house. Is this a safeguarding concern?

Submit
8. Since your appointment, you have been charged and found guilty of a minor misdemeanour. As it does not involve children you do not have to inform the Principal.

Submit
9. During your lesson you overhear a student telling another student that they are meeting someone after school but they have told their parents that they are staying at another friend's house.

Explanation

Whilst this may be a matter that is dealt with by a HoH, this could be an issue of grooming and more. There is a clear need for evidence which begins with the referral

Submit
10. A former student wishes to come into the College for a period of time for some work experience or to help you out in the classroom. You are happy to accommodate them . What, if anything, do I need to do?

Explanation

The correct answer is to get agreement from the Head of Department (HoD) and then arrange with the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for the former student to come in and have a clear induction before they begin. This ensures that proper protocols are followed and that the former student is properly oriented and prepared for their work experience or classroom assistance.

Explanation

The safety of the child is the first priority and given the circumstances this is the only way of ensuring the she gets home safely. It would be good practice to write this incident up the following day and given to the DSL.

Submit
13. You see on a student's work that they have drawn a number of swastikas. Having spoken to them about this it is clear that they did not understand the significance of such a symbol. This matter does not need to be referred to the DSL

Explanation

Whilst it may be a one-off incident, we keep all referrals about such matters. It may be that later in their time at the school there are other concerns which would warrant the DSL to make a Prevent referral

Submit

Explanation

You would have already contacted home about this matter
