* What to look for in parents which may make you suspicious about their capabilities to parent their child adequately.
* How to trigger off child protection procedures
* Categories for inclusion in the Child Protection Register and how a child becomes deregistered.
* How to cope at a Child Protection case conference. How to cope in court.
* The roles and responsibilities of the differing agencies involved in child protection.
* The Children Act 1989 and its role in child protection
* Some case histories and how they were resolved.
