East Sussex Safeguarding Children Partnership: Publication of Child F Safeguarding Practice Review

We are pleased to inform you that the partnership has now published the Child F Local Safeguarding Child Practice Review. The full report can be found on our website here ESSCP-Child-F-LCSPR-Report-FINAL

On our website you’ll also find a four-page learning briefing and the partnership’s response to the review.

The report highlights important learning for all agencies involved in safeguarding children and families, and we would encourage all professionals across the local safeguarding network to read and reflect on the findings.

We ask that managers and practitioners take the opportunity to discuss the learning within team meetings, supervision sessions, and other relevant practice forums to support continued reflection and improvement in safeguarding practice. I have attached a presentation on the key learning and points for practice which can be used in these forums.
