Description & Learning objectives

A consistent message from cases involving harm to children is the importance of identifying problems early and taking rapid action to address them before they get worse. 

It’s important to remember also that no single professional can have a full picture of a child’s needs and circumstances. If children and families are to receive the right help, everyone who comes in contact with them – midwives, health visitors, GPs, early years’ professionals, teachers, youth workers, police, volunteers, and social workers – has to play a role by identifying concerns, sharing information, and taking prompt action.

Concerns about a child’s welfare may arise in many different contexts, and the nature of these concerns will vary greatly from case to case. What is important is that action is taken quickly so that a problem does not escalate.

In this course, caregivers can find out more about the framework for the assessment of children and their families.

The learning objectives are as follows:

  • To know the important principles that underpin the framework
  • To understand who should use the framework and why
  • To know what is required to properly assess children’s needs
  • To understand the nature of reflective practice and its role in assessment

 

This course is CPD accredited and is specifically for anyone working within Children Services. It is also tailored to where you live in the UK, adhering to each country’s own individual regulators - namely: Ofsted, The Care Inspectorate (Wales), The Care Inspectorate (Scotland), and The Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority (Northern Ireland).

If you have 5 or more learners who require this training, you might like to consider our face-to-face option instead. 

Because each of our courses is created by a specialist within this sector, we have the expertise to tailor any course to your specific needs. You can even arrange for your own documentation policies or procedures to be included in your Learning Management System.

To discuss these options before making your booking - or to ask any other questions - please just get in touch via our live chat.

This course is intended for personal development only and does not provide a regulated qualification.
