Professional curiosity: Practitioner’s guide and toolkit

This practitioner’s guide has been produced by Perth and Kinross Child Protection Committee in partnership with practitioners from NHS Tayside and Children and Families’ Social Work. It aims to provide all practitioners working directly or indirectly with children, young people and their families in Perth and Kinross, with clear practice guidance on how to be professionally curious and use this approach in the course of their work.

Included in the guide is a video version of the guide and a 7 minute briefing summarising the key points practitioners need to be aware of to help them be professionally curious.

Please note that this resource is primarily aimed at practitioners who work with children and families. However, its principles are applicable in an Adult Support and Protection context.
