Action Plan
Each section has a space for actions and a completion date. This is for education providers to use, providing you with an action plan to use to implement any necessary improvements as a consequence of completing the audit.
RAG Ratings
This is a visual guide to support the Action Plan, enabling education providers to see easily which safeguarding practice areas require improvement. Please note that these RAG assessments are for your self-assessment and to help the CSCP and it's partners prioritise any specific projects or training and development that may be required. RAG Criteria are below:
Red: There is significant work to be done to be compliant in this area
Amber: There are some gaps which need to be addressed with actions added at the end of the section
Green: The school self-assess as fully compliant with no further action needed
