Argyll & Bute Child Protection Procedures Online Briefing

BRIEFING DETAILS: * all sessions delivered on teams*

This short briefing session is aimed to help staff navigate and utilise the online CP procedures on the Argyll and Bute Website. 

Everyone has a duty and responsibility to protect all children from harm. The Argyll and Bute multi-agency child protection procedures are to assist staff in identifying indicators which might suggest that a child is being abused or is at risk of abuse, advise what steps should be taken if there are concerns about a child, and describe what happens once concerns have been reported. 

The welfare of the child is paramount, and children’s Rights should be considered at every stage of the procedures. These procedures should be read in conjunction with the National Guidance for Child Protection in Scotland 2021 (updated 2023).

The procedures promote –

• Multi-agency communication
• Collaborative working
• Consistent framework for practice

Who should attend: - 

Anyone from universal services who work with and support children and families.
