Managing neglect

These courses are for a multi-agency audience of supervisors, managers and LSCB members.

Managing neglect cases – Option 1 (half day) and 2 (1 day) have similar content. Option 1 is suitable as a refresher course, Option 2 as an introduction to managing neglect. The one-day course includes planning interventions and measuring outcomes.

Overcoming practice and organisational barriers (1 day) is suitable for both managers and safeguarding children board members, addressing the consistently topical question: Why do practitioners miss a child who is being neglected?

Neglect: Differing perceptions (half day) challenges differing professional and public views on what constitutes childhood neglect and considers the implications for assessment of the needs of children and young people.

Supervising neglect cases (half day) supports professionals and managers responsible for supervision of staff involved in the assessment of child neglect.
