This practice forum explores supervision as a protective mechanism in its own right\, strengthening decision-making\, professional curiosity\, safer culture and organisational resilience. \nThe findings of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) emphasised that safeguarding failures were rarely due to policy gaps alone but were rooted in weak organisational culture and insufficient leadership oversight\, highlighting that effective\, reflective supervision is a critical leadership mechanism to ensure accountability\, professional challenge and a culture where safeguarding concerns are surfaced rather than silenced. \nAims of the forum \n\nTo explore supervision as a core safeguarding control\, not an administrative task\nTo examine how poor or absent supervision contributes to safeguarding failures\nTo strengthen understanding of reflective\, restorative and accountable supervision models\nTo connect supervision to safer organisational culture\n\nLearning Outcomes \nBy the end of the session\, participants will be able to: \n\nArticulate why supervision is central to safeguarding effectiveness\nIdentify red flags in supervisory systems\nApply reflective questioning to complex safeguarding cases\nUnderstand how supervision mitigates risk\, drift and professional isolation\n\n\nBOOK NOW \n\nSpeaker: \nBethany Newman\, Founder\, Safeguarding Supervision \nBethany Newman is an experienced safeguarding professional and Founder of Safeguarding Supervision.
