Professionals

Everyone shares responsibility for safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Working Together to Safeguard Children 2023  details what agencies must and should do to keep children safe, emphasising that effective safeguarding is achieved by putting children at the centre of the system and by every individual and agency playing their full part. 

The National Framework for Children's Social Care underpins this.

This section provides information and guidance for professionals, practitioners and managers to support working with children and young people.
