It is sound, practical and most welcomed.'Wilma Bartlett, The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, UKTeachers and early childhood workers are the only professionals in contact with abused children for long periods of time. Although they are seldom aware of their importance, they can provide the child's best defence against abuse.Abused children exhibit identifiable behaviours and perform less well in school than their peers.
