CSPRP Programme

Published: 04/09/2024

A series of workshops will bring together safeguarding partnerships and partners from social care, health, police and education to explore how learning from serious incidents can be used to better protect children and young people.

Join a workshop series bringing together safeguarding partnerships to explore how learning from serious incidents can be used to better protect children and young people.

Safeguarding partnerships and partners from social care, health, police and other relevant agencies are invited to participate in a series of workshops drawing on emerging findings from the Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel – Learning Support Project.

The workshops offer opportunities to explore shared challenges, to hear about how different partnerships are approaching rapid reviews and Local Safeguarding Practice Reviews (LCSPRs), to understand and strengthen insights across safeguarding partnerships, and to connect with others.

A final workshop will draw on insights from the fieldwork with partnerships and the workshop series to co-develop recommendations for the National Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel and the Department of Education on how to improve the LCSPR process, the ways safeguarding partnerships can be better supported and wider system of learning.
