The ETI self-evaluation guidance on child protection and safeguarding has been reviewed to align better with the new Empowering Improvement Framework which published in May 2024.
A range of phase-specific self-evaluation proformas are available, including:
- a child protection proforma, for use by the Designated Teacher/Officer/Person for Child Protection, Designated Governor and/or the Child Protection Team;
- a safeguarding/preventative curriculum proforma, for use by a pastoral care team or head of year/head of department/coordinator; and
- a safeguarding proforma, for use by the Board of Governors/Management Committee.
The completion of the self-evaluation proformas will not be a requirement during any inspection activity being undertaken this year.
ETI are keen to hear the views of schools and organisations in relation to the new self-evaluation proformas.
