 The clearance level is used to denote how sensitive you think the concern is, and defines which staff members are able to view the information that you record. For example, a pupil who is normally well presented and punctual turns up to school late and looking scruffy. There is no harm in any other staff members knowing about this so you would set a low clearance level (clearance and severity range from 1 to 5). However if a pupil discloses to you that they are being abused at home, then the information is highly sensitive and you should set a high clearance level. <br> <br>
-'''Severity'''
+'''Severity''' <br>
 The severity level indicates how alarming the concern is, and Cura will use this to decide which staff member is going to review the information that you record. For example, form tutors might be responsible for reviewing incidents of severity 1, whereas the child protection officer might be responsible for reviewing incidents of severity 5. The exact structure is decided by your school and you may not know which members of staff are responsible for each severity level. <br>
 Use your own discretion - the more worried you are, the higher you should set the severity level. The concern will be reviewed by another member of staff who may change the severity level at a later date so follow your instincts. <br> <br>
