Information sharing in a safeguarding context means the appropriate and secure exchange of personal information, between practitioners and other individuals with a responsibility for children, in order to keep them safe from harm.
Introducing the Tool Box
When you’re managing a safeguarding concern, we know that making decisions about when, how and why to share information, can present real challenges.
We've developed this Tool Box to help make some of that decision making a little bit easier. The Introduction will explain how to use the Tool Box and its relevance to your work as a practitioner. This should be read first.
Throughout the Tool Box we will guide you through your decision making, sign post you to further information and provide opportunities for you to explore and practice your skills in information sharing.
