Children and young people’s guide to Working Together to Safeguard Children

Children and young people’s guide to Working Together to Safeguard Children

DfE is pleased to announce that a new children and young people’s illustrated guide to the statutory guidance Working Together to Safeguard Children has been published today.  This brilliant guide is accompanied by a short animation for children and young people which explains how people who help, support and protect them work together and what they can expect when they need help.

Government has worked in collaboration with children and young people when designing these materials, including the DfE’s Social Care Advisory Board, facilitated by the National Children’s Bureau.  We know that children and young people find clear effective communication really important and that they want information to be shared openly with them, so they can understand what services they should receive and how they can access help and support. 

The guide and animation can be used by children and young people independently, or with the support of an adult.

A toolkit is available for practitioners to promote the guide and help everyone understand how they can use this guide to support children and young people.  This toolkit can be requested by emailing: workingtogether.statutoryguidance@education.gov.uk
