Our Priorities

Birmingham Safeguarding Children Partnership

The Delegated Safeguarding Partners have identified four priorities for the next two years, which the Executive Board will oversee the effective implementation of through its Business Improvement Plan 2025-2027:

Priority 1: Working together more effectively – Implementing national reforms to strengthen multi-agency practice to support families and safeguard children.

Priority 2: Voice of the child and family – Ensuring children and parents/carers views are central to our multi-agency practice and engaging children and families with lived experience to improve our multi-agency safeguarding arrangements.

Priority 3: Children out of sight – Developing multi-agency pathways to better support and safeguard children who are at risk of, or who have become, out of sight to services.

Priority 4: Harm outside the home – Improving earlier identification and responses to children at risk of, or who are engaged in, serious youth violence or who are being criminally and/or sexually exploited.


Our shared ambition: “Birmingham, a great place to grow up”

Our shared purpose: Providing strong leadership and strong partnership assuring local delivery, partnership practice, shared risk and accountability.
