Introduction
Welcome to the Bolton Safeguarding Children Board (BSCB)
Multi-agency training programme for 2015-2016
The BSCB consists of senior representatives from all statutory organisations and key
members of the voluntary, community and faith sectors. Its key function is to agree how all
organisations will cooperate to safeguard and promote the welfare of children and young
people in Bolton. BSCB is responsible for ensuring the effectiveness of that work and to
ensure all children in Bolton have the opportunity to achieve the following five outcomes:
To stay healthy
To be safe
To achieve economic well-being
To enjoy and achieve
To make positive contributions
Working Together to Safeguard Children (2015) states “Everyone who works with children –
including teachers. GPs, nurses, midwives, health visitors, early years professionals, youth
workers, police, Accident and Emergency staff, paediatricians, voluntary and community
workers and social workers – has a responsibility for keeping them safe”
It also requires all agencies working with children and young people, either directly or
indirectly, to provide training in order to carry out their roles and responsibilities, in relation to
safeguarding children; this includes being able to recognise and respond to child protection
concerns. The BSCB training programme builds on this single agency training by promoting
inter-agency working which is recognised as essential to protect and promote the welfare of
children.
This programme has been developed by the Staff Development Working Group which
contributes to the overall aims of BSCB to safeguard and promote the welfare of children
and young people in Bolton. The Staff Development Working Group is committed to
delivering a high quality Multi-Agency Training Programme which supports workers,
volunteers and the independent sector in their responsibilities to safeguard children and
young people. All the courses on offer are informed by local practice developments, the
latest legislation, national guidance, local policies and procedures.
The programme is only possible due to the support and commitment of the multi-agency
training pool which consists of a range of experienced practitioners who prioritise their time
to contribute to the planning, delivery and development of the programme. Bolton
Safeguarding Children Board would like to acknowledge and extend its sincere thanks to
those agencies and colleagues who have supported the delivery of our training by providing
their resources, time and expertise. We could not offer this rich and diverse training
programme without this support, and it is greatly appreciated.
We are always seeking additional trainers who may wish to contribute to the training pool.
Further information about this professional development opportunity can be found on the
BSCB website: www.boltonsafeguardingchildren.org.uk

Multi-agency training
The Multi-Agency Safeguarding Children Programme offers a range of courses at all levels
from basic awareness to specialised courses for workers dealing with more complex or
particular issues. All the multi-agency courses are free to those statutory organisations and
members of the voluntary, community and faith sectors whose representatives come in to
contact with children, young people and their families in Bolton.
Single agency training
BSCB Multi-Agency Training Service is able to offer bespoke training courses to meet any
additional safeguarding needs identified by individual organisations. For an informal
discussion or to request further details of our single agency charging policy please contact

Allocation of places
All applications for multi-agency courses are considered in line with BSCB selection criteria
to ensure an optimum mix of agency and practitioner representation from statutory and
voluntary organisations on each course. It is unlikely that any one organisation will be
offered multiple places on any course unless the course is under subscribed or where urgent
safeguarding training needs have been identified. Therefore places are not allocated on a
first come basis.
If we are unable to offer a place on a course, applicants will be notified of the next available
date for that course and offered a placed on a waiting list.
Applicants should not attend a course unless they have received written confirmation.

charges to the applicant’s organisation.

training session, by the Multi-Agency Training Co-ordinator to confirm they are still
attending the session.
Evaluation of training
As part of our ongoing evaluation of the impact the Safeguarding Board Training has on
children and families, you will be contacted on behalf of the Board approximately 3 months
after training to complete an online follow-up evaluation.
The evaluation will involve an e-mail questionnaire, which will take no more than 5 minutes,
to complete. Please complete the evaluation as this will enable us to review our programme
and deliver quality training to the workforce.
You will be asked to provide feedback on: Your views on the quality and relevance of the training delivered
 The impact completing the training has had on you and your setting – for example
what has improved, what is different in your practice, any actions or changes you
have implemented as a result of the training

into practice
This is an anonymous evaluation but, if you would like to speak to the multi agency training
co-ordinator please contact them at [email protected]

opportunities to practise new skills?

Levels of training - which training should I be attending?
BSCB training courses are available at a number of levels to address the learning
needs of practitioners who have different levels of contact and responsibility with
children, young people and parent/carers.
PLEASE NOTE: Your own professional organisation may have different levels than
the ones listed below (please check your relevant documentation)
Level one
Target audience: those in contact with children, young people and their parents/carers, who
are in a position to identify concerns about the maltreatment of children, including those that
may arise from the use of the Early help Assessment. As a minimum they need introductory
training on how to work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of children

workers, child minders, residential and day care staff and those working in sport and leisure
settings in both a paid and unpaid capacity. This list is not exhaustive.
Recommended training: this level of training is relevant to all people new to working in the
Bolton area, and those whose basic knowledge of safeguarding children needs updating. It
is a requirement in Bolton that Level 1 basic awareness knowledge needs to be refreshed
every three years. Practitioners who are refreshing their basic awareness knowledge or have
infrequent contact with children and young people can access the e-learning package
through the safeguarding board website at www.boltonsafeguardingchildren.org.uk
Level two:
Target audience: those people in regular contact and who work predominantly with
children, young people and their parents/carers, who need a fuller understanding of how to

processes, undertake and review interventions when using the Early Help Assessment.
Examples of roles: practice nurses, hospital and community health staff, family and
children centre workers, teachers and teaching staff, early intervention services, social
workers, mental health and learning disability staff, probation officers, police officers, police
staff and police community support officers. This list is not exhaustive.

last three years which is compliant with the standard set out by Bolton Safeguarding
Children Board.
Level three:
Target audience: those people with a specific responsibility for safeguarding children and
young people who need to have a thorough understanding of working together to safeguard
and promote the welfare of children, including those who work with complex and/or serious
cases.

Examples of roles: designated or named health and education professionals, police and
police staff, social workers and other professionals involved in multi-agency investigations.
This list is not exhaustive
Recommended training: people with ‘Designated’ or ‘Named’ responsibilities for ‘Child
Protection’ or ‘Safeguarding Children’ should receive refresher training every two years.
These courses would also be applicable for workers with a lead or nominated role for child
protection.
Level four:
Target audience: Operational and Strategic Managers, at all levels within organisations
employing staff to work with children and families, or with responsibility for commissioning or
delivering services, who would benefit from specific training on multi-agency practice to
safeguard and promote the welfare of children.
