Public Law Children's Work - Introduction

Public law children proceedings are fast‑moving, complex and emotionally sensitive, and practitioners must be confident in both the legal framework and the practical realities of local authority involvement.

This practical one‑day course provides a clear introduction to the core principles, processes and duties that underpin public law children work under the Children Act 1989. Guided by an experienced practitioner, you will develop the knowledge and confidence needed to navigate emergency applications, care proceedings, assessments, threshold and long‑term planning.
