Record Keeping is an essential component of child protection work. A qualitative research study was undertaken with primary school teachers in Ireland which explored practices in relation to record keeping in child protection. The research findings highlight that a variety of approaches are undertaken in school in relation to record keeping in child protection.

The findings highlight the need to establish a framework for monitoring signs of symptoms of abuse on an ongoing basis
