It is important for those teaching for a school, college, sports centre or other organisation to follow that organisation's own CP procedures. Find out who within the organisation is the CP referral person, and also request a copy of their CP Policy. The CP referral person should be able to explain their correct procedures, supported by their CP Policy. Those teaching independent classes should follow the BWY CP Policy.
