In our assignment, we have been looking into different theories, and been having conversations with focus groups to collect data that we have used to get answers to our issue. Through our research on how the kindergartener teachers work to discover and follow up on the suspicion of neglect, we concluded on three components that we see as important. These components are relations and care, communication, knowledge, and competence. We have concluded that it needs to be an increase in knowledge and competence regarding this issue in the education of kindergartener teachers. This is so that the teachers are more prepared to deal with these kinds of issues. Further we have concluded that the staff in the kindergarteners are in need of constant refill of knowledge regarding this issue through regular courses. This will help the staff the knowledge, competence and ability to handle challenging situations with children that are the victims of neglect on a professional and ethic way.
