PDSCP - Update - Multi-Agency Working Together in Safeguarding

This replaces the old LSCB Level 3 Safeguarding Children Update course. ** This training is for professionals only **

Outline

This half-day training is being delivered virtually via Zoom.

The course aims to further develop working relationships to ensure that Pan-Dorset children and young people are safe, protected from harm and have access to the right help at the right time. It will enable participants to work together to identify, access and meet the needs of children and young people where there are safeguarding concerns.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

A cancellation fee applies to this training - please see Booking Information below.

The PDSCP recommends that DSLs and DDSLs in all settings update their Multi-Agency Working Together in Safeguarding training every two years. For other staff this should be updated every three years. If you are unsure, please check the Training Pathway page on the Pan-Dorset SCP website at https://pdscp.co.uk

Description

This half-day course will bring participants up to date with changes in law, policy and procedures, locally and nationally. There is also an opportunity to work together on current safeguarding concerns to ensure that the best possible outcome is achieved for children and young people by agencies working effectively together.
The course is underpinned by the latest government statutory guidance. Please see our Resources page for the link to the latest “Working Together to Safeguard Children” guidance: https://www.dorsetnexus.org.uk/Page/14297

Outcomes

The training will meet the continuing developmental needs of multi-agency practitioners working with children, young people and/or their parents/carers who could potentially contribute to assessing, planning, intervening and evaluating the needs of a child or young person, and parenting capacity, where there are safeguarding and/or child protection concerns.

By the end of the half-day course participants will:

  • Be aware of updated policies, procedures and practice in line with any changes in national legislation and guidance
  • Have knowledge of the Pan-Dorset SCP safeguarding priorities
  • Be aware of lessons learned from recent Serious Case Reviews, Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews and Audits
  • Have the opportunity to share good practice and work through safeguarding issues in the multi-agency arena
  • Reflect upon their own organisation’s safeguarding system to ensure that effective arrangements are in place to ensure a positive impact on the safety and welfare of children.
