Child Protection in a time of Austerity

Incorporating critical thinking and relationship based interventions with complex families.

centre

We recognise that this is a challenging time for the social work profession and statutory social work in particular. The Munro Review of Child Protection highlighted the complex nature of child protection work and the importance of ensuring that the professional judgement of social workers working with children and families with complex problems is of a high calibre.

Set against a backdrop of welfare reform, marketisation of services and austerity measures, the National Centre for Post-Qualifying Social Work is pleased to bring you our first child protection conference, which will focus on:

  • Critical reflection in child protection
  • Reflective leadership and the consequences of diminishing services
  • The role of supervision
