Children who are exposed to sexualised and/or other violence and neglect are at high risk of failing at school. Knowledge, cooperation skills and, above all, sensitive pedagogical action by school stakeholders are therefore necessary in order to take responsibility for the educational trajectories of children, to actively, sustainably and cooperatively shape help processes for affected children and to establish child protection as a quality feature in school structures.

In 14 podcast episodes (+ introduction and outtakes), Prof Dr Anke Spies discusses the basics of primary educational child protection with three experts from the field of child protection. Based on authentic quotes from primary school practice and with reference to relevant legal norms, they discuss topics such as the role and attitude in school child protection, the forms of child endangerment and aspects of conversations with children and their guardians. Two complex case studies are discussed in detail, the need for specialist advice is addressed and possibilities for inter-institutional and organisational co-operation, school development processes and the development of protection concepts are discussed.
