Stands for
CP — Court process through which a Local Authority seeks a Care or Supervision Order.
How it works in KallosSim
- In practice language — Court process through which a Local Authority seeks a Care or Supervision Order.
- What it means — Where a Local Authority believes a child is suffering or likely to suffer significant harm and that harm is attributable to the care given by the parents, it may apply to the Family Court for a Care Order under Section 31 of the Children Act 1989. A Care Order gives the Local Authority parental responsibility and the power to determine where the child lives. The parents retain parental responsibility but the LA can override their decisions. Parents have the right to legal representation, funded by legal aid. The threshold criteria must be met at the date proceedings are issued, not at the point of final hearing.
- In KallosSim — Cases and formative debriefs may reference this concept when your sector pack and card selections call for it.
Training only. Fictional AI-generated cases only — not legal advice, not live decision support, not a substitute for supervision.
What it is not
- A substitute for reading primary statute or your organisation’s procedures.
- Competence assessment, ASYE sign-off, or Bar / SRA / CIPD accreditation.
- Advice for a live family, employee, client, or court matter.
