- It should raise a realistic ambiguity — the "what would you do?" moment
- Include the moment a staff member has to decide whether to escalate
- Provide 4 discussion questions
- Provide the recommended response (what the safeguarding lead would want to see)

Do not include names, locations, or details resembling any real situation.

Replace bracketed placeholders with real context. Never paste identifying details about children, health or safeguarding cases.

Human review checklist

Tick each before you send or publish the output.
