Derby City Council, Derbyshire County Council, Derby and Derbyshire Integrated Care Board and Derbyshire Constabulary (the Statutory partners) work in partnership with relevant agencies such as health providers, schools and education settings, probation providers and others to improve local safeguarding arrangements and hold each other to account as to how they are keeping children safe. Their website is https://www.ddscp.org.uk/about-ddscp
The site provides information for the public, children and young people, parents and carers, and professionals.
The partnership has a number of sub groups to carry out its work.
- Child Safeguarding Practice Review
- Policy and Procedures
- Learning and Organisational Development
- Quality Assurance
- Exploitation and Vulnerable Young People
There are sub groups covering particular areas:
- Education sub groups
- Districts’ Safeguarding (covering all district council areas)
- A Stakeholder Group
They produce regular safeguarding updates – here is a link to the latest one from 31 March 2023.
