NORTH AYRSHIRE PROMOTE GOOD PRACTICE NATIONALLY On Friday 3rd October 2008, Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education hosted a 'Good Practice in Child Protection Conference' at the Hilton Hotel in Dundee. Representatives from Child Protection Committee's across Scotland were invited and some areas were asked to present aspects of good practice in child protection. Congratulations are extended to North Ayrshire Council Housing and to Children 1st Advocacy Service, both of whom were identified as examples of good practice in child protection and presented workshops at this key event.

NEW CHAIRPERSON FOR CHILD PROTECTION COMMITTEE I am delighted to take up this post and would like to welcome you to the North Ayrshire Child Protection Committee website. Children and Young People are at the heart of all the work we do in North Ayrshire. This website is a valuable resource for children, young people, families, professionals and members of the public alike. We hope that you take time to visit some of the pages and download some or all of our essential information. I would also like to introduce you to our new additional website for younger children. Why not have a look at SELF LEARNING PACK - AN INTRODUCTION TO CHILD PROTECTION We have now introduced a self learning pack for staff / volunteers in all statutory and voluntary organisations that work with children and young people in North Ayrshire. This pack aims to offer staff volunteers a FIRST STEP to understanding child protection processes and includes a Certificate. This pack can be printed off by visiting the Training page within this site. Bob Neilly |
