Course: Managing Allegations About Members of Staff (LADO) Briefing
Date: 16th June 2021 — 2.30pm-4.30pm
Trainer: Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO)
Location: Virtual — Microsoft Teams
Course Description:
The CSCP is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children in the borough in all aspects of their lives. To achieve this, the Partnership expects all agencies providing services for children are a safe environment and have policies in place to manage allegations against members of staff where concerns are raised that the person may not be suitable to work with children.
Course Objectives:
— To gain a greater understanding of the role of the LADO
— To know how to make a LADO referral when concerns are raised
— To gain an understanding of the LADO process following referral
Target Audience:
This event is suitable for all multi-agency professionals working with Camden children and families.
Due to the current social distancing restrictions in place in light of COVID-19, the CSCP has worked with our experienced trainers to ensure that safeguarding training can still be made available to multi-agency partners. Although, there will be some changes for all delegates to note prior to booking:
— Delegates need to apply to join the course.
— All sessions will be held virtually — please make sure you can access Microsoft Teams or Zoom (these will be the preferred platforms for safeguarding training).
— Some session will require you to review a handout pack which will be sent to you in advance with instructions.
— Be aware that no online platform is completely secure, so keep questions general, and avoid giving any information that could be used to identify a child or family.
— Always keep your speaker on mute if you’re not speaking to reduce background noise.
— Please do not use any other devices while you’re taking part in the conference.
— Please take note of the allocated break and lunch times set during the training and behave as if you were in a ‘real’ training room.
Failure of any of the above will result in the delegate not receiving their certificate of accreditation.
