Family engagement
Families play an important role in decisions about children’s safety and wellbeing. They are aware of children’s safety and wellbeing and help children to raise concerns.
Your service must be open and engage with families about:
- decisions affecting their child
- the service’s child safe approach
- the service’s operations and governance.
