The Childrens Society- The Slang Dictonary

Show Description

This slang dictionary seeks to support parents, carers and professionals to better understand the language young people may be using and support them to safeguard young people.

It is important to recognise that if a young person uses this language, it does not necessarily mean they are being exploited. This resource aims to support parents, carers and professionals to start conversations with young people and raise awareness around this language.

ADCS Discussion Paper

BUILDING A COUNTRY THAT WORKS FOR ALL CHILDREN POST COVID-19

July 2020 The Association of Directors of Children’s Services Ltd

All communities and every aspect of children’s services have been affected by Covid-19, however, experiences have varied greatly, and for some, this period will have been exceedingly difficult and traumatic. The purpose of this short discussion paper is three-fold: to put children, young people and their lived experiences of Covid-19 front and centre in national recovery planning; to articulate what is needed to restore the public support services they rely on; and, to capture the positives and gains made during a very complex national, and indeed, global emergency.

Managing through COVID-19: the experiences of children’s social care in 15 English local authorities

Show Description

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, public services are having to rethink how they continue to operate and provide for those most in need of care and support. Amongst the
most vulnerable groups, for reasons other than the virus, are children and young people known to children’s service departments. The role and statutory functions of children’s
social care (CSC) set out in primary legislation have remained the same during the COVID-19 period but it has been necessary to find ways to fulfil these within very changed
circumstances.

Show Description

Findings from interviews with schools, pupil referral units and local authority services in Cheshire West and Chester Council include: girls are more likely to experience informal exclusions, which means they are ‘invisible’ in official exclusions data; and 15% of pupils, all of whom had experiences of social care or Social Emotional Mental Health needs, accounted for 58% of multiple fixed term exclusions.
