Safeguarding Workshop - Neglect Awareness Training

Katie Hewitt, Workforce Development Manager, SCSP

Neglect involves not meeting a child’s basic physical and psychological needs. It is the most common form of child abuse. It can have serious and long-lasting impacts on a child’s life.

This short course will support practitioners from all agencies to develop a foundation of understanding about child neglect. It is suitable for all practitioners including those whose contact with children in the line of their work may be brief.

After this course you will be able to:

• Identify the harm caused by child neglect.
• Demonstrate understanding about different forms of neglect.
• Recognise when a child is being neglected or is at risk of neglect.
• Learn how you can address child neglect in your work.
• Know how to access support for families when you have concerns.
