Observing and Reporting to Protect Children is an essential module for teachers, teaching assistants, and Early Years practitioners in UAE schools and nurseries.
The module focuses on the critical role of observation and reporting in safeguarding and child protection, ensuring concerns are identified at an early stage, recorded accurately, and communicated appropriately.
Learners will develop skills to recognise behavioural, emotional, and physical indicators of distress or potential harm, apply objective observation techniques, and maintain professional boundaries when responding to disclosures.
The course also addresses effective record-keeping, confidentiality, and the correct use of reporting and escalation procedures, including collaboration with designated safeguarding leads, colleagues, parents, and external agencies.
Fully aligned with MOE, KHDA, SPEK, and ADEK requirements, the module prepares practitioners to act with confidence and consistency, creating safe, supportive, and child-centred learning environments across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the wider UAE.
