By the end of the workshop you will be able to:

• Identify good practice to promote a positive relationship with children
• Identify situations and practice that might constitute either poor practice or possible abuse
• Identify ways of dealing with your own feelings and state what constitutes neglect, physical, sexual and emotional abuse
• Recognise signs and symptoms of abuse and appreciate why reporting it is often difficult
• Identify appropriate action if a child discloses they have been abused
• Describe appropriate practice that reduces the likelihood of abuse occurring

Cost of the workshop also includes access to a digital resource
