This looks like a great opportunity.

Any thoughts on what the ideal proportion of S47s leading to child protection plans would be? I'm not necessarily disputing that 1/3 is too few but is it not more about the way in which families are treated than the outcome?

@KarenBiddle14 There was so much content and really interesting discussion in the chat. Recording will be uploaded to https://t.co/3ZwwuxeKop (the first three events are already there) and @researchIP are preparing briefings for each of the four KEEs.

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

Looking forward to this later this afternoon.

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

@AlisonDomakin @researchIP I don't envy that task given how evidence and content rich the events have been but look forward to reading and sharing the briefings!

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

Thought-provoking discussions happening in the chat for #KEE2021 as always. I'd love to see more events of this nature in the future.

[Mandy Harrison @Mandy_Soton_PDT]

Over the past 2 weeks we have seen the successful end to 2 cohorts of student placements. How thrilled are we to see so many coming back to join us as employees 😊 @KarenBiddle14 @Rachel_SotonPDT @SPSouthampton @SouthamptonCC @Emma_SotonPDT @_UoW @solentuni @ColinBright18

[Mandy Harrison @Mandy_Soton_PDT]

Just preparing our child and adolescent development session for Practice Week - it’s going to be a good one. We are going to share some great resources @researchIP @SouthamptonCC @Emma_SotonPDT

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

Gillian Ruch speaking about the importance of practitioners using play resources and the lack of these being provided. Something we are trying to get in place in Southampton #KEE2021

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

Excited for the third #KEE2021 event this afternoon.

[Dez Holmes @dez_holmes]

For anyone unable to attend the Knowledge & Evidence Event yesterday, recording & slides are now available:

#KEE21

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

@NimalJude Yes, I made that point on the chat line in the session, all case recording needs to be written considering that the child may/will read it one day. I'm not sure I entirely agree with Prof Munro's point but certainly food for thought.

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

Thought provoking point from Eileen Munro about recording: she'd rather see scant recording of good practice than thorough recording of poor quality practice #KEE2021

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

I would definitely recommend viewing the recording and slides of the first Knowledge and Evidence Event on https://t.co/27Dbk5IaQT (once available)
Tickets are still available for the following three events: https://t.co/vePzs8oide #KEE2021

[Emma Barker @Emma_SotonPDT]

#KEE2021 really interesting to hear from Eileen Munro 10 years on from her seminal review
