Harm means:
Anything which is happening to a learner that puts them at risk. This includes risk of psychological, physical, sexual, financial abuse and or neglect. It would include grooming, physical attack and being forced to do something that you don’t want to do. It may include bullying.

What should be done if a learner thinks someone else is being harmed.
What we do if we think a learner is about to harm someone else.
What we need to do, to keep learners and others safe.
