Detail:
The Graded Care Profile2 (GCP2) is an assessment tool that supports staff to measure the quality of care being provided to a child. It also helps staff measure the quality of care being provided by a parent or carer to meet their child's needs, particularly if there are concerns about neglect.
The GCP2 assessment tool lets staff score aspects of family life on a scale of 1 to 5. This helps them to identify areas where the level of care children receive could be significantly improved.
Training will be provided by a member of staff who has been accredited as an NSPCC GCP2 trainer. The GCP2 license can only be obtained after successfully completing this course.
