Disguised Compliance

Disguised Compliance (half-day workshop)

Please note: Our workshops are for practitioners who work within any of these boroughs; Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea or Westminster.

This half-day workshop delivered by Safeguarding Trainer and Consultant Rahana Hussain is an important area of learning within the wider context of safeguarding children.

Disguised compliance’ involves a parent or carer giving the appearance of co-operating with agencies to avoid raising suspicions to allay professional concerns, and ultimately to diffuse professional intervention.

By the end of the course participants will be able to:

• Develop a clearer understanding of the nature of disguised compliance and how it presents in the behaviour of the parent/carer;

• Explore tools and techniques that can be used to better intervene and work with the presenting dynamics;

• Understand how to keep the child at the heart of practice;

• Discuss the crucial role of reflective supervision;

• Examine learning from child safeguarding practice reviews and explore how theory can link to practice.

Please note this workshop will be delivered online via Zoom, unless the Covid-19 situation improves and we are able to revert back to face to face training.
