The updated 'Working Together to Safeguard Children' was published on 15.12.23. The documents and resources published here will be updated to reflect any changes as soon as possible.

Working Together 2023 makes it clear that education settings must comply not only with the requirements set out there and with the most current version of Keeping Children Safe in Education but also with any additional requirements placed on them by their local safeguarding partnership.  Sheffield education settings therefore must comply with Sheffield Children Safeguarding Partnership (SCSP) requirements.  For clarity and ease of reference these are stated in the document below as well as how the Sheffield Safeguarding Children Advisors for Education will support Sheffield education settings to comply with these requirements.  Please contact the advisor linked to your setting if you need to discuss how we can support you with your compliance with these requirements.
