Overview

With so much chaos existing in this field, and children being harmed, if you work with children, and love to make it your career, you must be fully aware of what is going on around you. As much as you learn, you must also be able to apply your knowledge in real-life situations. The Diploma in Children and Young People Protection – Level 2 is for anyone who works or comes in contact with children, and want to know how to protect and safeguard their wellbeing.

The course will offers insight on how to recognise child neglect, and child abuse and the impact it can have on children and young people. You will gain the necessary skills and knowledge of working to protect children and young people in your care. Children are vulnerable from birth to the age of 18, and it is adults around them that must make the effort to keep them safe. The course will give you an overview on how you can accomplish this task effectively, while ensuring children in your care are safe and well protected.

It is a child protection course on vulnerable children and young people who may not be able to safeguard themselves. If you work in health and social care, this course is a good fit for your career. Gaining a recognised qualification will give you the opportunity to progress in your vocational training, and further your career in this field.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
