Safeguard / Safeguarding Chronology

What happened, in what order, and what needs fixing in the record?

Keep entries in sequence with search, date ranges and action states, and quality checks that flag placeholder text and missing due dates.

Student Radar supports authorised safeguarding practice. It does not replace the DSL, local procedures or professional judgement.

Questions for the working day

The questions this answers

What happened, and when?

The chronology holds entries in sequence, so the order of events is the record's job, not the reader's reconstruction.

Can I find last term's entry?

Search and From and To dates cut the record to the period being asked about.

What needs fixing?

Quality checks flag specifics: placeholder text left in entries, and action-required entries missing a due date.

What came of it?

Action states sit with the entries, so what was decided and whether it happened read together.
