<p>The Separated Parents Information Programme (SPIP) is a course for separated parents
that helps them to understand how to put their children first, even though they may
be in dispute with one another. SPIPs are aimed at parents where there are no safeguarding
concerns and are not designed to provide comprehensive advice on domestic abuse. The
SPIP content is reviewed regularly, and is currently under review.</p><p> </p><p>All
Cafcass practitioners are social workers with at least three years’ post qualifying
experience, and all social work staff joining Cafcass receive specialist training
on domestic abuse. Cafcass has developed a Domestic Abuse Practice Pathway and recently
launched a Child Impact Assessment Framework (CIAF) to provide its practitioners with
additional tools to assess the impact of domestic abuse and inform its recommendations
to the court about child arrangements. Cafcass keeps both tools under review.</p>
