Course aims and objectives
This training introduces the Effective Child Protection (ECP) Model, a structured framework designed to improve safeguarding practice.
ECP is built around four key principles:
- Conversations
- Thresholds
- Change
- Measure
The course will support practitioners to engage meaningfully with families, apply consistent thresholds for intervention, identify necessary changes, and evaluate the impact of their work.
Participants will leave equipped to make informed decisions, promote collaborative safeguarding, and ensure interventions lead to measurable improvements in children's safety and wellbeing.
These sessions can either be attended as part of mandatory training for specific practitioners or used as a refresher.
