This should include, but not be limited to: • Introduce regular, formal self evaluation to promote reflective practice and drive continuous improvement. • Update and develop policies and procedures, including Administration of Medication, Accident and Incident Procedures, and Child Protection, to ensure these reflect current best practice guidance, local authority procedures and relevant legislation. • Develop robust risk assessments, clearly identifying potential risks and outlining preventative measures to keep children safe from harm.
