If you have read my post ‘Be a professional’ you would know
that I talked about being aware of your image including your online image. You
need to remember that anything you have ever posted on the internet will be
saved somewhere, therefore when posting always think ‘who will see this’.
Social media is very popular and some of social medias that were popular in 2014 are: Classmates, Facebook, Linkin, Instagram, Reddit, Google +, Pinterest, Twitter and YouTube.
When looking at safeguarding it is also good to have the
child helpline somewhere with you. Unfortunately, no matter what school you are
in there will be some form of bullying. There could be problems with children
being abused or neglected. You need to remember that children from any age
could be abused including children in care and even in respectable homes.
Anyone can be abused or be the abuser.
Although there are those with a high risk of being abused
and they are: disabled children, children with a learning disability and
children who are more intelligent (high IQ) than others.
There are many warnings for those who are being abused and
here are some of them: not wanting to change in front of others and have
bruises in places where it is almost impossible to get hurt.
When taking photographs of your class you must first find
out the school policy in regards to this. However, whenever taking a photograph
you shouldn’t be able to identify any of the pupils or the school at they
attend.
