The Early Years Foundation Stage statutory framework is being updated with
requirements for all early years providers. However, there is a concern that despite robust policies, whistleblowing is often seen to be a challenging area of practice.

Description

Due to the number of serious case reviews related to the safeguarding of babies and young children in early years settings, the Department for Education is strengthening the statutory requirements for practitioners to ensure that each setting builds a strong safeguarding culture, with staff who feel confident to recognise when others are failing to safeguard children and take appropriate and timely action to raise concerns.
