Provider of a set of online resources for Designated Safeguarding Leads

The Department for Education are seeking Expressions of Interest with regards to the provision of a set of online resources for Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs) through supplier engagement sessions and a Market Engagement Questionnaire. The Department has recently consulted on changes to the outline of the DSL role - as set out in Annex C of the proposed Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) statutory guidance. The proposed changes outline the DSL's role in promoting the educational outcomes of children who have or have needed a social worker and clarify the type of additional support such children may need. We are exploring procuring a service to develop a set of online resources (an 'online toolkit') to support DSLs with promoting the educational outcomes of children who have or have needed a social worker and implementing the proposed changes. The toolkit will be hosted on existing DfE content pages on .GOV.UK.
