ChildLine Schools service Direct quotes from children: ‘If children know that there is a lot of help out there they wont be scared to tell’ ‘Abuse should be discussed but no one wants to talk about it’
Aims The aims of the ChildLine Schools Service are: • To ensure children have an understanding of abuse in all its forms, including bullying, and an ability to recognise the signs of abuse. 2. To ensure children know how to protect themselves from all forms of abuse. 3. To make them aware of how to get help and sources of help, including ChildLine.
Delivery The ChildLine Schools Service will: • Be delivered in all primary school every 2 years across England, NI, Scotland and Wales • Be focused on children from 5 to 11 years old, with a particular emphasis on 7-11 year olds. • Involve an assembly and interactive workshop
Assembly and workshop The assembly and workshop will cover: • Definitions of abuse – physical, emotional, sexual and neglect • Where to and who to go to for help – including teachers, social workers, parents • Information about ChildLine HelpLine and on line The Workshops are interactive involving games, discussions, whole class and small group activities. Teachers and school staff play an important role in helping to deliver safeguarding messages to children. Contact: Jan McDonald, 01489 895823 /07834498319 jaspinall@NSPCC.org.uk
Sun Safety • Don’t forget the annual issue of Sun Safety. Despite the economic pressures, Sunsacks is still trying to raise awareness of sun safety in primary schools, to encourage the teaching of sun safety strategies and the use of sun protection. • Have a look at the free resources on the Sunsack website and ideas for sun safety. www.sunsacks.com
Refugee Week 2011 The Red Cross are offering free humanitarian education sessions to raise awareness around Refugee Week 2011, 20th - 26th June. Please contact Sara Cotton on 07595651205 or saracotton@redcross.org.uk to arrange a session or if you have any questions.
Healthy Schools Update 1 • Healthy Schools is still an active project as the Coalition Government is committed to improving the health of children and young people. • As from April 2011, Healthy Schools has been reviewed to be less bureaucratic in line with Government policy. The emphasis now is on the process being schools-led, with local support, quality assurance and recognition. • A nationally available Healthy Schools toolkit has been launched. It is hosted on the Department for Education website. • www.education.gov.uk/healthyschools • From the home page find it on Schools> Pupil Support> Pastoral Care section.
Healthy Schools Update 2 • The Whole School Review replaces both the NHSS audit tool and the Annual Review. • The much simpler Healthy Schools planning template has replaced the health and well-being improvement tool (HWIT). • Schools` data from the old tools had been transferred by the national team & emailed to schools (BUT it did not work 100%)
Healthy Schools toolkit • The toolkit is designed to enable schools to `plan, do and review` health and wellbeing improvements for their children and young people. • The toolkit is in a downloadable folder containing: - An overview of the HS approach - Examples: to show how other schools are making health and wellbeing improvements - Templates: whole school review, planning tool and a story template. - Information and frameworks based on the former support materials - identifying needs, defining outcomes, activities / interventions and review achievements.
The Healthy Schools Team • The government expects Healthy Schools to be school-led with minimal support from the local authority, hence the simplified tools. • A smaller team is supporting health and wellbeing improvements in Hampshire schools • There will be no `no cost` support for schools in the future as the Government has stopped the direct funding of Healthy Schools. • The partnership with Health and Education will continue in Hampshire but with restructuring in both Children's Services and the NHS Hampshire (PCT), service to schools will be affected. • In the future there will be a Hampshire Healthy Schools portal where schools can complete and submit their review but in the meantime follow the process.
