Students > Student Details > Safeguarding
For schools in England, the Safeguarding section of a student's profile has been expanded to include Ever Known to Social Care.
What's New
- Start Date - Defaults to today's date
- End Date - Optional
- Notes - Optional, up to 500 characters
- Each record can not have overlapping dates with existing records.
The dates entered in here will determine whether the student is classed as Currently in Social Care or Known to Social Care in the MIS using the following criteria:
- Currently in Social Care
- Y = Student has an active social care record
- N = Student currently does not have an active social care record
- Known to Social Care
- Y = Student has or previously had an active social care record
- N = Student has never had a social care record
You can also create a new Ever Known to Social Care record directly from the Student List using the Quick Edit popup and the Student Social Care attribute.
When updating the social care record, you can choose one of the following options:
- Update Current Record:
- Set the Start Date to today’s date.
- Allows you to amend the End Date and/or Notes of the currently active record. Click Update.
- Terminate current record and start new one based on new record start date:
- Enter a Start Date for the new record. Click Update.
- The existing record will automatically end on the day before the new start date.
- End Date and Notes are optional for the new record.
