Safeguarding Children Level 2


Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is defined by the UK government as:

  • protecting children from maltreatment
  • preventing impairment of children's health or development
  • ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care
  • taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes.

Everyone who comes into contact with children and families has a role to play in safeguarding children and protecting them from harm. It is everyone’s responsibility.

But dental professionals are additionally required by law to keep children safe.

If you're not yet a member of Dentaljuce, we highly recommend you to join and gain access to our comprehensive course on Safeguarding Children.

This course, along with over 100 other CPD courses, is available for a single membership payment.
