Sefton Child Exploitation Screening Tool
Sefton Safeguarding Children Partnership would like to invite you to an essential virtual briefing where you will find out crucial information to protect children against Child Exploitation.
There will be an opportunity to explore how Sefton’s Child Exploitation Screening Tool can help professionals to spot the signs and indicators of child exploitation by identifying both early concerns of risk and where children need a child protection response. This will also include how the use of the tool can be used as part of referral processes.
This essential briefing will also:
- Consider the unique vulnerabilities of children and families and how a multiagency response can provide protective factors to potential harm.
- Challenge the myths and stereotypes around victims and perpetrators.
- Explore why the appropriate use of language is crucial in all aspects of multi-agency safeguarding responses.
- Explore how to use the Child Exploitation Screening Tool to ensure interventions are child centred.
- Raise the importance of shared multi-agency professional responsibilities for ‘Transitional Safeguarding’ and meeting the needs of children aged 16-18 yrs.
