Latest safeguarding findings.
Summary: Explores the main findings of the report ‘Safeguarding children across services: messages from research’ (Davies & Ward, 2012). The report looks at 15 research studies, aiming to identify how best to safeguard children. Discusses early intervention, the need for early recognition, social work interventions, keeping the child in the family, understanding child development and inter-agency working. Concludes that while many of the findings are not new, as the report is based on research evidence gathered from well respected sources, it should be taken into account in post-Munro planning for the ongoing improvement of safeguarding.
