Case study brief info and key issues.
2017 – Anonymous – Martin
Death of a 14-year-old boy in February 2016 initially thought to be due to suicide but, before the review was completed, an inquest determined the cause to be misadventure.
Key issues: Martin was an adolescent with mental health needs. His parents separated following domestic abuse by the father. Although there were concerns about his emotional wellbeing at home and school in December 2015, a referral to children’s social care was not made.
Learning: the challenge for professionals working with families where members have a range of complex needs; need for coordination in provision of services across local authority boundaries; specific practice issues were found which highlight the dilemmas faced by front-line practitioners when exercising professional judgement in their safeguarding practice.

THEORY MODELS BASED ON
Reflective Account (1st person)
Introduction: what is your assignment about? (E.g., participating in group work to simulate working as part of a multi-agency team).
Include:
the model of reflection that you are using and why this particular model (Rolfe 2001; Kolb, etc)
reflection of your role referring to role theory such as Belbin- the role you identified yourself with at the beginning and how this changed as the group work progressed
illustrate your argument/discussion with relevant literature (for example if you present an argument as to the importance of group members having an understanding of each-others role you need to back this up
consider factors such as how the group prepared for the task – you can refer to seminar activities such as using Tuckmans group formation to agree on how you were going to achieve the goal of developing a care plan. Include communication, time-keeping, commitment as part of your reflection –
How have you agreed upon your methods of communication between you? Eg wats up /zoom video calls etc
what worked well and what were possible barriers to achieving the group’s goal
what were the possible consequences where barriers and challenges were are not dealt with? Use serious case reviews/ reports (for example, Lord Laming’s report following the demise of Victoria Climbie) to illustrate your argument about the implications
conclusion should be a summary of what you learned through researching and being part of MAW and how the experience of MAW will inform your continuing professional development (For example, you might have learned more about specific pieces of legislation or indeed learned something new through the experience).
