We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and children. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and we help to keep children safe by providing guidance, support and training to schools, settings and colleagues.
Our aim is to provide accurate, up to date resources, advice and guidance, in line with national and local regulations in a way that is clear, concise and easily accessible. We equally seek to learn from the wide range of skilled staff in schools, colleges and education settings who are constantly developing new ways to support children, families and staff in keeping them safe.
We are pleased to announce the release of our comprehensive 2026-27 Directory of Education Services.
Multi-Agency Action Learning Sets suitable for anyone working or volunteering with children, young people and families.
One of my immediate focuses has been finalising this year’s DES Directory, which we are aiming to share around February half term.
