Key Practitioner Messages Safeguarding supervision was viewed as a child‐focused, helpful activity that has led to practice improvements. Negative comments were in the minority and related to perceptions of its intrusive and punitive nature, the time involved and competing priorities. Improvements advocated were that safeguarding supervision should include discussion about children whose care is problematic but who are not subject to formal child protection proceedings.
