| English term or phrase: Designated teacher | Until autumn 2004, designated teacher was the term used to refer to a teacher with specific responsibility for the co-ordination of child protection procedures within a school, and for liaison with social services and other agencies. All schools were required to appoint a senior teacher as their designated teacher.
However, new guidance issued to local authorities, schools and further education institutions in September 2004 (Safeguarding Children in Education) requires schools now to appoint a designated senior person (not necessarily a teacher) for child protection. |
