Bath and North East Somerset Local Safeguarding
Children Board
Inter-agency Safeguarding Children Training
Programme 2008-2009
About This Brochure
This training brochure has been designed to be readily
accessible to staff from all agencies. The first few pages aim to
set in context the purpose of the training programme and to act as
a future reference to practitioners.
The training brochure outlines the training programme for the
financial year 2008-2009 as agreed by Bath and North East Somerset
Local Safeguarding Children Board and its sub-committees.
The Local Safeguarding Children Board is committed to providing
a comprehensive and effective training programme to agencies within
Bath and North East Somerset. The training programme aims to
increase participants’ knowledge and skills in the field of Child
Protection and improve working relationships between agencies, in
order to promote high quality service provision and better outcomes
for children and young people.
The LSCB training brochure will be published and distributed on
an annual basis and the contents of the training programme will be
revised according to the training priorities identified for that
year.
The training programme aims to promote anti-discriminatory
practice, and reflect cultural diversity and all courses should
address these issues.
