Just checking...

A friend's lo recently hit another child at preschool. The preschool took a photo of the hand print on the other child.
I didn't think we were allowed to take photo's like this, thought we had to detail the incident in writing and mark on a drawing where the 'damage' was.
Or am I wrong?

I was under the impression we weren't allowed to take photos of an injury.

It's different if your taking a general photo of the child and the injury can be seen, but I thought there were rules about photographing the injury itself.

You could double check with ofsted.

i thought we shouldnt as well. i am a bit surprised to hear they took a picture.

we were told on our safeguarding course that we must never take a photo of an injury!

I'm glad you all thought the same, I felt a bit stupid saying this to mum!!! Now I'v got your agreement I feel a bit more confident
