Child Centred approach....

Sometimes although not very often children may even be involved in more serious issues including their own protection, if it is deemed appropriate a child may be invited to put across their views, thoughts and opinions in child protection conferences, and core group meetings.

I am 99% sure of this but its very precise info I writing so I thought I best check!!

That's fine, but where u have put "deemed appropriate a child..." i would put young person as a child of say 5 isn't going to be able to sit in a conference and do that.

The importance of a child or young persons centred approach is to understand that every child is different. The national framework of Every Child Matters was set up to support the joining up of services to ensure every child can achieve the five Every Child Matters outcomes. Support is offered to children to enable them to be healthy, stay safe, enjoy and achieve, make a positive contribution and achieve economic well-being. All services aimed at children or young people are based around the planning and meeting of the individual needs. Children’s wishes should be taken into account during decision making to give them a sense of belonging and not to be made to feel as though its them who’s to blame this should be done in a sensitive manner and they should be listened to to find out how they are feeling and what they would like.
