Course overview:

Who? Professionals who work directly with children and young people in Lambeth.

Why? More young people in England aged 11-17 have a Child Protection Plan because of neglect than for any other officially-recognised forms of maltreatment. This multi-disciplinary course offers practitioners an opportunity to explore their role in identifying and intervening when there are concerns about neglect.

What? Participants will be able to:

1. Identify the definition and signs & indicators of neglect

2. Recognise how values and beliefs may influence working with neglect

3. Outline current legislation and guidance governing a multi-agency response to neglect

4. Recognise the potential blocks to effective engagement with families where neglect is a concern

5. Develop strategies for working in a multi agency context to achieve positive outcomes for children and families

6. Identify models of good practice for early intervention to prevent long term harm to children living with neglectful carers.
