Safeguarding Children with a Disability
Abuse can happen to anyone but deaf and disabled children are over 3 times more likely to be abused or neglected than non-disabled children (Jones et al, 2012).
It's vital that professionals working with children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities follow best practice to keep them safe and protect them from abuse or neglect.
