Check next to the four forms of abuse to be looking out for
Restraining a child who may hurt themselves or someone else
Physical Abuse
Neglect
Sexual Abuse
A parent saying no to a child and making them cry
Emotional Abuse

What are the four indicators that can help you form a belief that abuse is taking place?
A child or young person has bruises on their knees or shins
Your own observations of the behaviour of the child
Your own observation of injuries on the child
When a child doesn’t want to leave when the kids program finishes
When a child or a young person discloses to you that they are being abused
When another person discloses something to you that leads you to suspect a child or young person is being abused.

A child that experiences abuse may display a range of indicators, both physical and behavioural. Which of these statements is most accurate? 
The presence of one of these indicators means that abuse is definitely taking place
The repeated occurrence of one or more indicators may mean that abuse is taking place
The occurrence of one of these indicators may mean that the child has an illness or disorder
Both B and C

As an adult, you have become aware that a sexual offence has been committed against a young person in your care. You should: 
Confront the person that committed the offence
Pray with the young person and tell them things will be ok now
Report the offence to the Police

Check all strategies that can be used to maintain a safe culture. 
Have a transparent culture
Maintain appropriate supervision ratios
Undergo correct training
Be accountable to others
