CELCIS first learning conversation, Change in Residential Child Care, takes place online on Tuesday 28 October.

We are delighted to welcome speakers from Glasgow City Council, the Care Inspectorate, Aberlour Children's Charity Sycamore Services, and CELCIS, who will explore how residential child care is changing across Scotland. Attendees will hear:

  • How nurture principles are being introduced into Glasgow’s children’s homes
  • How the Care Inspectorate is reshaping its inspection approach to put The Promise at the centre
  • How Aberlour Children's Charity Sycamore Residential Service is supporting staff teams to grow their skills and confidence through reflective practice

Drawing on content previously published in the Scottish Journal of Residential Child Care, these stories will show how new models of care, regulatory change, and whole-system approaches are shaping practice, strengthening professional learning, and making a real difference for children, young people, and the adults who support them.
