Children and Young People Partnerships Information Sharing Protocol
Purpose
The purpose of this protocol is about supporting information sharing between agencies, for the purposes of identifying, safeguarding and promoting the welfare of vulnerable children at-risk of social exclusion. Most families rightly expect inter-agency services to be well co-ordinated. In many cases it is only when information from a range of sources is put together that a child can be seen to be in need of extra support.
Consultation
Consulted with all Caldicott Guardians re the protocol itself. Regarding the Information Sharing and Assessment project, have consulted with Youth Forum, School Council, School Forum, Parents' Voice, Looked After Children
Distribution
Electronically distributed to all agencies who are signatories, plus the Children and Young People Strategic Partnership. Some hard copies distributed to individuals, such as Health Visitor/School Nurse. Original is in Office at Children and Families.
