Hampshire Safeguarding Children Partnership (HSCP) fulfils a number of statutory functions including co-ordinating the multi-agency safeguarding system in Hampshire and undertaking reviews of serious safeguarding cases.
When a child dies, or is seriously harmed, as a result of abuse or neglect, the case may be referred to the HSCP Learning and Inquiry Group (LIG) who can commission a Child Safeguarding Practice review to identify how local professionals and agencies might improve the way they work together to safeguard children and identify effective practice.
Where the criteria for a Child Safeguarding Practice Review are not met, learning and effective practice may still be identified and a local learning event may be undertaken. Key messages from recent local learning events are shared below for practitioners, who work with children and families, to review and apply to practice.
