This Toolbox Talk equips school staff with clear, practical guidance for safe one‑to‑one and lone working with children. It outlines why visibility, communication, and thorough risk assessment are essential to protect children and meet legal duties.
Key topics include staying visible, informing a colleague of location and duration, conducting a brief risk assessment, maintaining appropriate professional boundaries, keeping doors open or using an occupied sign, employing a buddy system for longer sessions, reviewing Individual Education Plans for specific risks, and ensuring equipment meets EN/BS standards. The guidance also highlights the importance of accurate record‑keeping in the One‑to‑One Log and the use of emergency contact phones.
Implementing these safe practices not only protects children but also supports staff wellbeing by providing clear procedures and reducing uncertainty during one‑to‑one sessions. The approach aligns with the Department for Education’s expectations for safeguarding culture and demonstrates proactive risk management.
By integrating these practices into daily routines, schools create a proactive safeguarding environment that reduces risk, enhances staff confidence, and supports the well‑being of every child. Regular review of the Lone Working Register and feedback from staff help identify any gaps and drive continuous improvement.
