In this Safeguarding Children's training, participants will learn:

• How to apply wise child protection practice in one's work; acknowledging there is no “best” way of doing things for all groups. Participants will need to reconcile new learning with existing and trusted cultural practices.

• The ‘grey areas’ in child protection concerns and reporting thresholds.

• Participants own personal barriers and what professional dangerousness could look link in their work; how this affects decision-making, and how to manage this.

• How to safely handle disclosures of harm.

• How to have conversations with family and whānau when there are child protection concerns.

• How to use Information Sharing legislation and engage in collaborative working.

• How to make an effective Report of Concern.
