"Child Protection" in the family home is completely different from "Safeguarding" in a professional setting.
Parents are criminalised and "professionals" are protected... That has GOT to change.
Protect children in ALL settings from abuse IN LAW
otherwise nothing will change!

“it feels like the whole planet is rethinking education at the moment… Education& schools in particular are often discussed as though they are an unquestioned good… there is a lot missing from this picture of how people learn & there is more to education than info transfer...”

18/ It seems the neuroscience says that the best way to work with brain development is to allow autonomy, because we can never know exactly how someone else’s brain works and what they will find meaningful. Let learners make choices & abandon the idea of everyone doing the same.

20/ In conclusion, it seems the neuroscience supports autonomy in education, simply because it is a provides a more efficient way to learn and to work with, rather than against, brain development.

Child protection is only taken seriously when harm happens at home. If a child is harmed in school its not considered a child protection matter. We have a 2 tier system in Scotland. Parents are criminalised, "professionals" are protected by the state. #NoSafePlace #InSafeHands
New National Guidance for Child Protection Scotland needs further review to ensure compatibility #UNCRC
ALL children u18 in ALL settings rights protection from abuse harm #Art 19.

Home educators saw the #datatheft & #profiling coming years before as we're always first under the bus despite #homeed having #equalstatus in law. Homeeduphobic prejudice remains rife.
Nearly 5 years since we won at the Supreme Court. How time (and liberty) flies!

Council prioritises saving money over 'wellbeing'. Compulsory age = August after 5th birthday.
#girfec #schoolisnotcompulsory
This child is not of compulsory education age until August 2022 and need not enter primary school this year. Fife Council should not be flouting parental wishes and dismissing concerns.
