LSCB Induction Training Pack
In early 2010, the London Board Training Subgroup produced a training pack to be used by experienced trainers for those workers/volunteers within any organisation who are in contact/work with children and young people and adults who are parents/carers. These will be people who are in a position to identify concerns about maltreatment, including those which may arise from the use of the Common Assessment Framework (CAF).
The pack is designed to be delivered flexibly as a two or three hour event to large or small groups. The nature and level of participant involvement, together with the way in which the exercises within the pack are executed will depend on group size and the time available to deliver the training.
Having been signed off by the Training Subgroup, the pack was circulated for consultation and approved at the London Safeguarding Children Board meeting on 30th June 2010.
The training pack and associated resources can be found below:

Competence Matters - a multi agency safeguarding children training framework for London
Competence Matters offers a framework for a London-wide comprehensive safeguarding children training programme. Used to inform local Safeguarding training strategies, it will provide a framework for a programme based on each London borough’s individual training needs.

Competence Matters - a multi agency safeguarding children training framework for London
This document is intended to assist Children’s Trusts and/or Local Safeguarding Children Board (LSCB) Training Officers and Sub-Committees with the planning, commissioning and delivery of a comprehensive safeguarding children training programme. LSCB partners, and those with responsibility for staff learning and development within LSCB member agencies will also need to be familiar with this framework.
It is not intended that Children’s Trusts or LSCBs should attempt to adopt everything within this document – rather, local areas should use this as a framework around which to base their own training programmes.
