2. Safeguarding Context 2.1 National Context 2.1.1 Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is defined in “Working Together to
Safeguard Children” (2015) as:
Protecting children from maltreatment Preventing impairment of children’s health or development Ensuring that children are growing up in circumstances consistent with the
provision of safe and effective care Taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes
2.1.2 Effective safeguarding arrangements must be underpinned by two key principles:
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility: for services to be effective each professional and organisation should play their full part
A child-centred approach: for services to be effective they should be based on a clear understanding of the needs and views of children
2.1.3 Section 11 (s11) of the Children Act (2004) provides statutory guidance on the
arrangements required to safeguard and promote the welfare of children which all agencies need to take account of when creating and maintaining an organisational culture and ethos that reflects the importance of safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. At an organisational or strategic level, these key features are ensuring:
Senior management commitment to the importance of safeguarding and promoting children’s welfare
A clear statement of the agency’s responsibilities towards children; available for all staff
A clear line of accountability within the organisation for work on safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children
Service development that takes account of the need to safeguard and promote welfare and is informed, where appropriate, by the views of children and families
4
Staff training on safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children for all staff working with or (depending on the agency’s primary functions) in contact with children and families
Safe recruitment procedures in place
Effective inter-agency working to safeguard and promote the welfare of children
Effective information sharing
2.1.4 “Safeguarding Vulnerable People in the Reformed NHS - Accountability and Assurance Framework” (2013) was revised during 2014/15 and published on 2nd July 2015 entitled: “Safeguarding Vulnerable People in the NHS – Accountability and Assurance Framework” (2015). It defined the safeguarding responsibility and duty of Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) as follows:
CCGs as commissioners of local health services need to assure themselves that
the organisations from which they commission have effective safeguarding children arrangements in place. CCGs are responsible for securing the expertise of Designated Professionals on behalf of the local health system. The Designated Professionals undertake a whole health economy role. It is crucial that Designated Safeguarding Children Professionals play an integral role in all parts of the commissioning cycle, from procurement to quality assurance if appropriate services are to be commissioned that support adults at risk of abuse or neglect, and children, as well as effectively safeguard their well-being
Safeguarding forms part of the NHS standard contract (service condition 32) and commissioners need to agree with their providers, through local negotiation, what contract monitoring processes are used to demonstrate compliance with safeguarding duties
CCGs must gain assurance from all commissioned services, both NHS and
independent healthcare providers, throughout the year to ensure continuous improvement. Assurance may consist of assurance visits, section 11 audits and attendance at provider safeguarding committees
CCGs are also required to demonstrate that they have appropriate systems in
place for discharging their statutory duties in terms of safeguarding children. These include:
A clear line of accountability for safeguarding children, properly reflected in
the CCG governance arrangements, i.e. a Named Executive Lead to take overall leadership responsibility for the organisation’s safeguarding arrangements
Clear policies setting out their commitment, and approach, to safeguarding children including safe recruitment practices and arrangements for dealing with allegations against people who work with children as appropriate
Training their staff in recognising and reporting safeguarding children
issues, appropriate supervision and ensuring that their staff are competent to carry out their responsibilities for safeguarding
Effective inter-agency working with local authorities, the Police and Third
Sector organisations including appropriate arrangements to cooperate with Local Authorities in the operation of Local Safeguarding Children Boards (LSCB) and Health and Wellbeing Boards (HWBs)
Ensuring effective arrangements for information sharing
5
Employing, or securing, the expertise of Designated Doctors and Nurses for Safeguarding Children and for Looked After Children and a Designated Paediatrician for unexpected deaths in childhood
The role of CCGs is also fundamentally about working with others to ensure that critical services are in place to respond to children and adults who are at risk or who have been harmed, and it is about delivering improved outcomes and life chances for the most vulnerable.
CCGs need to demonstrate that their Designated Clinical Experts (children), are embedded in the clinical decision making of the organisation, with the authority to work within local health economies to influence local thinking and practice.
2.1.5 Haringey CCG fulfils and is compliant with these safeguarding children responsibilities
and duties and this Annual Report will demonstrate how the CCG has ensured this, during the period of 01/04/15 to 31/03/16, within its own organisation and across the organisations from which it commissions.
2.1.6 NHS England conducted a series of deep-dive exercises across CCGs’ arrangements
and in 2015, one of the areas of focus was safeguarding. The results of this process was reported in February 2015 and they acknowledged the extent of focus and commitment to safeguarding within Haringey CCG. A more detailed breakdown of the results of this deep dive exercise can be found in the “Review, Inspections and Audits” section of this report.
2.2 Local Context 2.2.1 Haringey is an exceptionally diverse and fast-changing borough with a population of
267,540 according to 2014 Office for National Statistics Mid-Year Estimates. 51.1% of the population are male and 49.9% are female. Almost two-thirds, and over 70% of young people, are from ethnic minority backgrounds, and over 100 languages are spoken in the borough. The population is the fifth most ethnically diverse in the country.
2.2.2 The borough ranks among the most deprived in the country with pockets of extreme
deprivation in the east. Haringey is the 30th most deprived borough in England and the sixth most deprived in London.
2.2.3 There are approximately 63,400 children and young people under 20 living in Haringey
(approximately one third of the total population). The wards with the largest number of people aged under 20 in Haringey are: Seven Sisters, Northumberland Park, White Hart Lane and Tottenham Hale. There are more children in the east of Haringey, which has higher levels of deprivation than the west.

(originally ratified by the HCCG Quality Committee in December 2013) was reviewed quarterly by the HCCG Safeguarding Team throughout 2015-16; and six-monthly within this period by the HCCG Safeguarding Children Assurance Meeting and HCCG Quality Committee.
4. Governance and Statutory Arrangements 4.1 Haringey CCG (HCCG)
4.1.1 HCCG is the major commissioner of local health services across the borough and is
responsible for safeguarding quality assurance through contractual arrangements with all provider organisations. Designated Professionals, as clinical experts and strategic leaders, are a vital source of advice to the CCG, NHS England, the Local Authority and the Haringey Local Safeguarding Children Board (HSCB). They also provide advice and support to multi-agency health professionals.
4.1.2 The Chief Officer for HCCG is the Executive Lead for Safeguarding and is responsible

6. Child Death Overview Panel (CDOP)
6.1 As the year in question has only just closed, this is a preliminary report and, as such,
subject to change. The system was piloted in 2007/8 and fully functional from 2008/9. A full report on the scheme from 2008/9 will be prepared later in the year. In 2015/16, there were 24 deaths of children, normally resident in Haringey. For many of these, final post mortem reports, inquests or other proceedings are still in progress. The table below describes the children who died by their age and provisional diagnosis. These have not yet been confirmed by the CDOP.

1. This youth was fatally stabbed just short of his 18th birthday. He was known to social
services and the youth justice system. A serious case review is being undertaken.
2. This infant died from cardiac disease secondary to unrecognised vitamin D deficiency. His
older sister had already been treated for this condition. His mother misunderstood
information given about vitamin D deficiency and only took supplements herself. The
importance of vitamin D deficiency and the availability of free supplements, to those who
need them, is being emphasised to healthcare professionals and the leaflet for parents
has been revised. Coincidentally, national information is being put in all red books
(Personal Child health Records).
3. A young person ingested a constituent of food to which she was known to be allergic and
subsequently died. The exact circumstances are yet to be made clear.
4. In one instance the mother was known to have taken up smoking after delivery, having
ceased during the pregnancy.
During the year, there were eight rapid response meetings in relation to unexpected deaths, as
well as three meetings of the CDOP panel itself.

7 Safeguarding Monitoring of Haringey Providers 7.1 All health providers are required to have effective arrangements in place to safeguard
vulnerable children and to assure the CCG, as commissioners, these are working.
These arrangements included:
Safe recruitment Effective staff training Effective supervision arrangements Working in partnership with other agencies All providers ensuring they have a Named Doctor and a Named Nurse for
Safeguarding Children (and a Named Midwife if the organisation provides maternity services)
GP practices to have a lead for safeguarding, who should work closely with the Named GP and Designated Professionals.
7.2 “Safeguarding Vulnerable People in the NHS – Accountability and Assurance Framework” (2015) defines the safeguarding responsibility and duty of Health Providers as follows:
All staff, whether they work in a hospital, a care home, in general practice, or in
providing community care, and whether they are employed by a public sector, private or not-for-profit organisation, have a responsibility to safeguard children at risk of abuse or neglect in the NHS
Health providers are required to demonstrate that they have safeguarding leadership, expertise and commitment at all levels of their organisation and that they are fully engaged and in support of local accountability and assurance structures, in particular via the LSCBs and in regular monitoring meetings with their commissioners
Health providers must ensure staff are appropriately trained in safeguarding
children, Prevent and Domestic Violence at a level commensurate with their role and in line with the Intercollegiate Document (2014). It is strongly recommended that safeguarding forms part of any mandatory training in order to develop and embed a culture within their organisation that ensures safeguarding is acknowledged to be everybody’s business from “the board to the floor”
All health providers are required to have effective arrangements in place to
safeguard children at risk of abuse or neglect and to assure themselves, regulators and their commissioners that these are working.
7.3 The three main Provider Trusts all held internal bi-monthly Safeguarding Children
Committees which were all attended by a member of HCCG Safeguarding Children Team.
7.4 BEH-MHT proposed a change for the Safeguarding Children bi-monthly Committee,
by joining the children and adult agendas to form one quarterly Joint Safeguarding Committee. The first Joint Safeguarding Committee meeting will be held April 2016. The effectiveness of the Trust Joint Safeguarding Committee will be monitored as part of the terms of reference (TOR) annual review.
7.5 The meetings provide an opportunity for information sharing on all aspects of
safeguarding children. Any issues arising that required escalation were discussed with HCCG Senior colleagues and within the Haringey CCG Safeguarding Children Assurance meeting as appropriate.
7.6 The Provider safeguarding children dashboards/metrics/balanced scorecards were
monitored quarterly at the Clinical Quality Review Groups (CQRGs) and by exception
12
at the HCCG Safeguarding Children Assurance Meeting and HCCG Quality Committee.
7.7 In addition to each Trust having specifically-tailored safeguarding children training,
there were several sources of more general and subject-specific training available for Haringey health professionals:
Multi-agency one-day courses via HSCB Lunchtime learning sessions via HSCB E-learning via HSCB E-learning produced by the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health
7.8 The availability of these opportunities was disseminated via a range of methods including emails, HSCB website and HCCG intranet; with provider organisations also further considering methods of dissemination to attempt to achieve increased completions, compliance and learning. 8.0 Haringey Looked After Children (LAC) 8.1 CCGs have an ongoing responsibility for ensuring that the health needs of LAC are met.
In Haringey the statutory Initial Health Assessments (IHAs) and the Review Health Assessments (RHAs) are carried out by a specialist team – the Children in Care (CiC) Team who are employed by Whittington Health and commissioned by Haringey CCG.
8.2 Children In Care Team (CIC)
8.2.1 The Designated Doctor and Nurse in the Children in Care team host the 2015 reconstituted Monthly Operational group (MOM). The MOM was reconstituted to improve collaboration across the agencies in relation to Children in Care. Together with Social Care, the Vulnerable Children’s Commissioner and First Step psychological service, the group reviews relevant Children in Care pathways and outcomes, and works towards implementing changes. It provides a forum to raise systemic challenges and explore innovative ways of working.
8.2.2 The current priority is to improve the emotional health of Children in Care. The progress of the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (“CAMHS”) transformation plan is discussed at each MOM meeting and the following actions have been agreed:
A handbook for Social Workers with information and contact details for relevant mental health services is in development.
Specific training for Social Workers and Foster Carers in recognising mental health concerns, services available and information on how to refer to services is in development. This will be for existing staff and future training is to be part of the Social Worker & Foster Carers induction programme.
The emotional needs of children should be considered when plans are made for long term placement and permanency for the children. The Independent Reviewing Officers (IRO’s) have been asked to read any First Step reports and are encouraged to liaise with them especially when there are concerns regarding the young person’s understanding of their life story and whether they need additional therapeutic input.
First Step plus is a new service being piloted to work with children and their carers in unstable placements who have experienced three or more placement moves.
13
8.2.3 The Designated Nurse for CiC attends the Corporate Parenting Committee and the CSE subgroup. At the Corporate Parenting Committee, the Designated Nurse for CiC meets with members of Aspire1 and councillors. Performance and statistics are shared and scrutinised. Plans are underway to work with Aspire to increase the number of children and young people involved in service development, to ensure that the views of Children in Care are considered.
8.2.4 CSE subgroup - the focus is to discuss CSE but the remit of the group has been increased to consider a wider range of vulnerabilities and risk factors in recognition of the interconnectedness and particularly risks associated with young people who are missing from placement or have run away, trafficking, gangs and serious youth violence. All members of the Children in Care health team attend CSE meetings in relation to children with whom they are involved.
8.3 Initial Health Assessments (IHA)
8.3.1 The IHAs are all carried out by paediatric staff. The national standard is for all children and young people to have their IHA within 20 days of children entering care. This has not always been possible due to a variety of reasons such as:
a delay in being notified of a child entering care
the Social Worker cancelling a booked appointment
some young people refusing to attend During the year there had been an improvement in receiving notifications of children entering care and moving placement. During quarter 4 not all notifications were received and we became aware of children new into care by scrutinising the monthly returns received from the Information analysis via social care. We have discussed this with the Operational group and will continue to monitor, escalate where necessary and report back to the CCG Safeguarding and Assurance Committee.
8.3.2 The Children in Care Team are working towards ensuring that every child has a Strength and Difficulties (SDQ) questionnaire completed at the point of entering care. Support is given by the carers in completing this to ensure that the information is available as early as possible for First Step.
8.3.3 117 IHA’s were completed this year and 3 out of borough assessments. A service level agreement has been drawn up with the placing Clinical Commissioning Group and payment received for conducting the out of borough assessments. Overview health reports are now compiled for young people that refused to attend or did not attend, to ensure that concerns regarding health are identified and risks assessed. The Children in Care Team may attend a multi-agency meeting if necessary in order to develop a protection plan. In addition, 25 children were seen with an adoption care plan. The medical advisor meets any prospective adopters of Haringey children to ensure that they are apprised of developmental or learning needs, and will also incorporate information about their emotional health. The medical advisor attends the monthly Haringey adoption panel where prospective adopters are approved and matches of Haringey children are approved.
8.4 Review Health Assessments (RHA)
1 Aspire is a youth-led group for young people in care and leaving care in Haringey.
14
8.4.1 383 RHAs were completed, and 12 out of borough assessments for children placed in Haringey. 17 RHA’s were not completed (10 young people refused and the remaining 7 are planned for April).
8.4.2 The Designated professionals attend Whittington Health Safeguarding meetings as
required, and also work across borough with Islington and Hackney to ensure that systems and processes are peer reviewed and of an agreed quality.
9.0 Haringey GP Practices 9.1 Safeguarding Monitoring of Haringey General Practices 9.1.2 From 1 April 2013 NHSE assumed responsibility for commissioning and performance
monitoring of Primary Care Services. CCGs maintained a duty to support NHSE with the quality assurance of these services.
9.1.3 HCCG Safeguarding Children Team continue to drive improvements in the quality of
Primary Care safeguarding children services offering advice and support to independent practitioners. Technology such as the HCCG Intranet, the GP Bulletin and practice emails were used to highlight and disseminate learning. Practice visits and face-to-face or phone advice and support were used as opportunities to reinforce understanding and improve the quality of safeguarding children practice.
9.1.4 Level 1 and 2 training was available via e-learning and Haringey Safeguarding Children
Board. 9.1.5 The Level 3 annual two and half hour bespoke GP training programme continued and
was led by the Named GP supported by the HCCG Safeguarding Children Team. This offers bespoke face-to-face training to all Haringey GPs in groups with a maximum of 30 participants. The training programme is developed new each year and is run in yearly cycles from autumn to the following summer. The sessions covered local and national issues and alerted GPs awareness to lessons learned from Haringey Serious Case Reviews. The 2015-16 training specifically related learning to a Haringey/Islington SCR review: Child O, particularly the child protection significance of self-harming children, personality disorder in adults and its impact on children.
In 2016/17 HCCG Safeguarding Children Team intend to continue the training programme.
9.1.6 Promoting effective safeguarding children in GP practices requires understanding of
the current landscape of General Practice and providing appropriate motivation, information and support with context in mind. It is positive that GPs in the level 3 training sessions are informed and interested. It remains a concern the low number of reports from GPs to child protection conference. An audit in 2015 found of those GPs invited to conference 31% provided a report and 91% of GPs were invited to the conference. The quality of reports was reviewed and less than half, 38%, were considered adequate or better. Various actions have been taken as a result of this audit. The information has been presented at all 4 collaborative meetings, 2015-16 Level 3 GP training sessions and in HCCG briefings. The information relevant to Children and Young People services was shared with them. Practices with a low submission of reports were contacted directly and asked to review their systems and practice. The audit will be repeated in 2016 to assess impact of the feedback.
9.1.7 The bi-monthly GP Child Protection Leads meetings, originally commenced in
November 2013, continued and were facilitated by the Named GP and either the Designated Doctor or Assistant Director for Safeguarding / Designated Nurse. They were interactive sessions during which cases/issues were brought for discussion. The last meeting was in May 2015 and had poor attendance. GPs were canvassed about whether the meetings added value and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive
15
but it was flagged the timing of meetings and location were important for regular attendance. The meetings are planned to restart in June 2016 and will rotate through the four collaboratives to encourage attendance of Lead child protection GPs as well as other interested GPs across the borough.
10 Safeguarding Monitoring of Haringey Clinical Commissioning Group
(HCCG) 10.1 The HCCG Safeguarding Children Designated Doctor and Nurses and Named GP met
1-2 monthly. This provided an opportunity to share good practice, update each other on any developments and monitor the implementation of work plans.

12 Serious Case Reviews (SCRs) 12.1 Over the period of this report, three SCRs were published by the Haringey
Safeguarding Children Board. These were:
Child CH SCR concerned the murder by CH then aged 15, of a young man (Mr Z) who was unknown to him, in a residential street.
Child O related to the death of a 15 year old young person who took her life on a train track. A multi-agency HSCB-led learning event is planned focusing on the journey of the child through mental health services
Child D related to the abuse of a young child
12.2 Outlined below are learning and actions as a result of recent SCRs:- 12.2.1 Child CH has highlighted the need to ensure that all Child Protection Conferences
receive an effective report from the child’s GP.
12.2.2 The post-audit actions to increase awareness and learning and to improve submission rates and quality of GP reports to conference have included the following:
Distribution and report to GPs the findings of the audits Highlight practices with systems in place that enabled increased rates of report
submission Inclusion of the audit and its findings within the 2015-16 GP L3 Safeguarding
Children Training Programme Provision of “model” GP reports to Child Protection Conference to ensure clarity
regarding expectations of timeliness and quality of completion The HCCG Safeguarding Team plans to re-audit in 2016-17 to measure the
impact of the awareness raising and training on the provision and quality of GP information shared with Child Protection Conferences
12.2.3 Child T (an SCR published in 2013) highlighted the need to strengthen GP / Health
Visitor Liaison Meetings. The HCCG Safeguarding Children Assurance Meeting and the Whittington Health have received a very positive audit indicating an improved position regarding GP/Health Visitor Liaison meetings and impact on communication and information sharing.
12.2.4 Child O identified delays in the commissioning of services and in follow up and co-
ordinated action on multi-agency risk assessment. The SCR has also highlighted the need to better educate and enable staff to work with children and young people who self-harm and address the impact on them and their families. As well as the planned multi-agency HSCB-led learning event focusing on the journey of the child through mental health services there has been joint work and discussion, monitored via the HCCG Safeguarding Children Assurance Meeting to clarify the escalation mechanisms
17
for clinical and commissioning teams in the event of multi-agency disagreement in relation to treatment and commissioning decisions and options.
12.3 A proposal from the HCCG Designated Professionals regarding increasing the learning from Haringey SCRs in combination with a recent Local Authority (LA) review into historical SCRs has led to planned workshops for frontline staff across the borough which will roll-out across 2016-17 and positively focus on increasing their learning, engagement and involvement.
13 HCCG Safeguarding Strategy 13.1 The HCCG Safeguarding Team has reviewed the 2013-2016 HCCG Safeguarding
Strategy and produced a Draft HCCG Safeguarding Strategy: 2016-2019. 13.2 The process of review has included the following:
Inclusion of updated and revised safeguarding children legislative framework and guidance
Consideration of the layout/design of the Strategic document and how its strategic
priority areas link with the more operational objectives within the Safeguarding Team Workplan
13.3 Whilst elements of the 2013-2016 Strategy have been retained, the proposed 2016-
2019 Strategy looks different to the previous version to achieve the following:
To consider the most optimal length, layout, accessibility and use of the document to ensure enhanced effectiveness
To ensure that the document is strategic with the more operational aspects to be
covered in the Workplan objectives that will be intrinsically linked and sit beneath the Strategic Aims and Priorities
To ensure it is reflective of all relevant legislation and guidance (referencing these
but not detailing elements of them within the document)
To ensure that the Safeguarding Strategy is informed by and linked to the HCCG Vision as well as the priority areas identified by NHSE, CQC and the Haringey LSCB and SAB
To acknowledge the background and context of the high profile national
safeguarding reviews and their importance but to keep sight of the fact that all safeguarding concerns and incidents are significant and to maintain a forward-looking approach
To identify a manageable and achievable number of priority areas that each
Workplan objective can be mapped and measured against in terms of how and when achieved
The 3-Year Strategy will detail how it will be reviewed and a detailed annual work
plan will be produced based on milestones and objectives. 13.4 The Safeguarding Team will map these and produce the final version for approval at
the June 2016 Quality Committee prior to planned June 2016 launch and implementation.
