Newcastle and Gateshead Joint Procedure:

The Newcastle Safeguarding Children Partnership (NSCP) and Gateshead Safeguarding Children Partnership (GSCP) have produced a joint Learning and Improvement Reviewing Pack. This provides a standardised approach to learning across both local authority areas. This practice guidance should be read by Safeguarding Partners, and all agencies involved in the Multi-Agency Safeguarding Arrangements (MASA). The Reviewing Pack includes information on:

Notification of a Death of a Child in Care or Care Leaver

Options for Learning

This framework and guidance have been endorsed by the safeguarding partners and will be reviewed and updated to reflect changes in national guidance and emerging good practice. 

The NSCP and GSCP have produced a Reviewing Pack, a Practitioner Guide and a Recorded Briefing to support practitioners.
