## Description
This is a contract for the provision of ‘Systemic Practice’ training to staff within Children’s Social Care. The training is a core component of Waltham Forest's Childrens Services wider practice transformation and restructure programme, which aims to embed more reflective, relational, and strengths-based approaches across the service. Systemic Practice has emerged as a well-evidenced and impactful model within children’s social care. Research shows that systemic approaches can lead to better outcomes for children and families and have a record of reducing the number of children entering care when implemented effectively. Its implementation in the London Borough of Waltham Forest represents a significant shift in how services engage with children, families, and professionals as we move toward a more inclusive and relational practice. It also aims to make the service more cost effective as outcomes for children improve. A budget of £100,000 has been secured by the Corporate Director to be spent over two years, with most of the expenditure anticipated in late 2025 and 2026. Systemic training will be offered to nearly all staff within Children’s Social Care with specialist courses for management, leadership and safeguarding partners.
