There are spaces available on the next session of the 2 day "Working together to safeguard children training course."
The programme considers some of the major learning points which have arisen from child death inquiries and serious case reviews. The factors identified will be discussed in the context of assessing a child’s situation and what might influence communication and decision making when interacting with other professionals, children and parents. Throughout the course, a focus remains on the current implementation of the ‘Getting it Right’ agenda (GIRFEC).
Aims: To enhance awareness of factors which contribute to coordinated responses in improving outcomes for children.
Objectives:
- To explore some common features illuminated by child death inquiries and significant case reviews;
- To promote partnership and collaborative working by creating a better awareness of issues regarding communication, disagreement, conflict and being able to constructively challenge others;
- To promote more effective coordination by exposing where issues have arisen in the past and discussing strategies to overcome these difficulties.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of the course participants will be able to:
- Describe what constitutes sound communication practices within the confines of child welfare practice;
- Identify some of the dynamics which influence assessment and decision making;
- Define the principles of information sharing;
- Develop an effective child’s plan using the GIRFEC approach.
Target Group
For all frontline staff and managers in the public, private and voluntary sectors; including those who have direct, indirect and/or occasional working contact with children, young people and families. It is also relevant to those working in adult services where there is a likelihood that their client base interacts with children. Ideally, participants should already have some basic awareness of child protection issues.
