Challenges For Educators Working With Child Protection Agencies
Posted: Tue Oct 20, 2015 7:57 pm
Q-list some challanges that may arise for educators when working withchild protection agencies:
1. Responding to the pressure of demand at the “front end”
of child protection services.
2. Building prevention and early intervention services
(especially for families in need).
3. Enhancing and monitoring practice consistency and quality.
4. Reforming policy and practice frameworks and
implementing reforms.
5. Recruiting and retaining a skilled workforce (including
reviewing organisational structures, operating models,
job design, specialist roles and supporting staff).
6. Providing interventions to prevent the over-representation
of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and their
families in the child protection system and implementing and
enhancing culturally appropriate responses for these families.
7. Providing a quality out-of-home care service, particularly
given the context of increasing complexity of children
coming into care and decreasing availability of foster carers.
8. Removing boundaries (between government departments,
between government and non-government agencies and
between individual practitioners).
9. Supporting families with multiple complex problems
(especially parental substance abuse, family violence,
mental ill health and repeated reports to child protection
services).
10. Providing staff with the tools necessary to perform their
respective roles (e.g., information systems).
11. Designing and delivering community education (e.g.,
to raise awareness that child protection is everyone’s
responsibility).

Q-what are some stretegies an educator could use to minimise the above challanges
PROMOTING AND ENHANCING REFERRAL PATHWAYS DIRECTLY FROM PRIMARY SERVICES INTO SECONDARY TARGETED SERVICES
CREATING VISIBLE ENTRY POINTS WHERE FAMILIES ARE ASSESSED AND REFERRED TO THE MOSTA PPROPRIATE SERVICE
COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND PROFESSIONALS MAKING REFERRALS TO SERVICES THAT EXIST IN THEIR LOCAL AREA AND
PROMOTING AND ENHANCING REFERRAL PATHWAYS FROM TERTIARY
child protection intake services to primary and secondary
services (also known as differential response).
--------------------------------------------
I am confused about both the questions so please suggest that am I on the right track?
