1 Multi Agency Safeguarding Training Strategy INTRODUCTION All organisations working with children and/or parents/carers have a responsibility under the Children Act 2004 to ensure that their workforce and volunteers are appropriately trained to recognise and respond to concerns where children may need support and/or protection. It is important that all practitioners working to safeguard children and young people are confident and competent in carrying out their responsibilities, and they fully understand their responsibilities and duties as set out in the legislation and associated regulations and guidance. Protecting children from harm and promoting their welfare depends on a shared responsibility and effective joint working between different agencies. The agencies which make up Islington Safeguarding Children Board are committed to ensuring that the messages regarding safeguarding are understood at all levels, across all services and that consistency of practice is achieved. 2. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF EMPLOYERS 2.1 Every agency/organisation must have processes in place that enable them to identify who needs training, to what level, and to evaluate the impact that the training has on practice. 2.2 Every agency/organisation must ensure that all relevant staff and volunteers receive a mandatory induction, which includes familiarisation with their child protection responsibilities, and the policies and procedures to be followed if they have concerns about a child s welfare. Regular refresher training should be provided at least every three years. Some services might decide to provide this training every two years. 2.3 Employers should ensure that all relevant employees and volunteers receive timely, appropriate training whether provided in-house, by Islington Safeguarding Children Board or by other training providers. 2.4 Agencies/organisations must release staff to attend the appropriate multiagency training courses, ensure time for them to complete multi-agency training tasks and apply their learning in practice. 1

2 2.5 Every agency/organisation must receive relevant single-agency training/support that enables them to maximise the learning derived from multi-agency training. 3. OUR VALUES All training in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children should: Be child-centred Promote the participation of children and families in the process Value working collaboratively Promote equality and respect diversity Be inclusive of the wide range of individuals and organisations that have a responsibility for safeguarding and promoting the well being of Islington s children 4. AIM OF THE STRATEGY The aim of this strategy is to provide a framework for Islington s safeguarding training programme. It provides guidance for employers on the training and development of staff and volunteers necessary for them to effectively safeguard and promote the welfare of children. This includes being able to recognise when a child may require protection, and knowing what to do in response to concerns about the safety and welfare of a child. Practitioners and managers must be able to work effectively with others, both within their own agency and across organisational boundaries. This can be achieved by a combination of single-agency and multi-agency training. 5. PURPOSE OF SAFEGUARDING TRAINING The purpose of training for multi-agency work is to achieve better outcomes for children and young people through: A shared understanding of roles and responsibilities for safeguarding children and promoting their welfare Effective multi-agency and integrated working Improved communication and information sharing between professionals, including a shared understanding of definitions, terms and thresholds Effective working relationships, including an ability to work in multidisciplinary groups or teams Sound child-focused assessments and decision-making 6. SINGLE AGENCY TRAINING This training is delivered by a particular agency for its own staff or volunteers. Agencies are responsible for ensuring that their staff are competent and confident in carrying out their responsibilities for safeguarding and promoting children and young people s welfare. 2

3 The number and depth of single agency training courses on safeguarding will depend on the level of that agency s contact with children and the extent of its role within the safeguarding process. The safeguarding training framework set out below will give guidance to assist in the identification of training needs. 7. MULTI-AGENCY TRAINING Multi-agency training should complement single agency training to promote a common, shared understanding of respective roles and responsibilities and the need to work closely with other professionals. The safeguarding training framework will assist the implementation of coherent and integrated training pathways. Working Together to Safeguard Children 2010 stresses the need for a skilled and knowledgeable workforce, and recognises the importance of both single and multi-agency training to achieve this. 8. TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT SUB-GROUP The main function of the ISCB Training and Professional Development Subgroup is to: 1. Identify the multi-agency training and development needs of staff and volunteers. This includes needs arising from changes in legislation, formal guidance, evidence from research and best practice. 2. Develop and implement an annual training and development plan. 3. Ensure that the content of the training is based on the latest research and clinical evidence about what works when working with children and families, including early prevention, those in need and those in need of protection. 4. Ensure training methods used are appropriate to the training outcomes to be achieved, and are based on evidence of what works in respect of skill / knowledge development, raising awareness, self-efficacy, professional confidence and single and multi-agency training. 5. Monitor and evaluate the quality of training. 6. Ensure relevant training is provided by individual organisations. 7. Ensure that training is reaching the relevant staff and volunteers within organisations. 8. Ensure lessons from Serious Case Reviews are disseminated. 9. Monitor attendance/absence and participation. 3

4 10.Ensure the delivery of training programmes is within the context of diversity and equal opportunities. 9. STAFF GROUPS Below are tables which identify which staff/volunteers belong to which occupational groups.
