Child Protection Conferences

A guide for professionals

This DVD shows professionals what to expect when attending a child protection conference

Attending a child protection conference for the first time can be daunting. 

To help professionals make an effective contribution to achieving the best outcome for the child, the films on our DVD explains what happens at a conference, its place within the child protection process, and the roles and responsibilities of the professionals who attend.

The DVD features a case study, using a fictionalised family to present the views of parents, children and professionals.

A conference is then dramatised, helping viewers better understand what happens on the day. 

Real professionals from a number of agencies – including children’s services, police, probation, health and education – talk about their own experiences and views on what makes an effective child protection conference. View a sample clip:

The DVD will help you to

• present difficult information in a factual, balanced way
• work effectively with other agencies
• deal with real and perceived differences in status
• challenge the views of others when needed
• contribute to decision making
