Working Together to Safeguard Children 2023 – implications for 0-19 practice (28/03/24)
Held in partnership with the School and Public Health Nurses Association (SAPHNA)
The Department for Education published the new Working Together to Safeguard Children 2023 guidance on Friday 15 December. What does this mean for 0-19 practice? At this special Insights event, we were delighted to be joined by national policy leads in the Department of Health and Social Care and NHS Safeguarding who provided an overview of the main changes in this statutory guidance and their potential implications for health visiting and school nursing services. It also provided an opportunity to ask questions, share any concerns or suggestions that you may have, and support your understanding of how the changes will affect your practice.
In this Insights event, experts in the field of safeguarding and child protection discussed and shared their knowledge to support health visiting and school nursing services.
Speakers included:
- Ruth Atkinson, Vulnerable Children Policy Manager, Department of Health and Social Care
- Kenny Gibson, Deputy Director of NHS Safeguarding, NHS England and NHS Improvement
