Bearing in mind that I am in Wales and don't do EYFS but someone might know the answer any way.
I went on training on Saturday with the next door council (I live on the border and can join both's training:D ) they gave me the huge new child protection folder (it wasn't child protection training tho). The first sheet is from that council detailing their social services duty desk numbers which are different from my county's. The thought occured to me that as I live on the border would I ring the county the child lived in or my own duty desk, where it would then have to be passed on. I have child protection renewal training next week so can ask then, but I am impatient and have been mulling it over since Saturday. Spoke to another minder and it had never occurred to her either so she is going to ask on her child protection course (different one from mine). Logically it seems sensible to ring the county that the child lives in but I had never thought about it before.
