A consultation to change the way families with pre-school children are supported, has been launched together with Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust. Please share a link to the consultation with parents/carers.
Following the move of some HR forms to Granicus please see SchoolsNet for guidance and FAQs for completion of forms and advice as to which forms the system is used for.
The development phase of the new Granicus Offsite direction notification and review forms is nearing completion, and the new notification system is scheduled to go live during September 2024. New documentation will be published on the Offsite direction and managed move page of SchoolsNet.
The Exclusion and Access team (formally the Inclusion Team) request that schools cease sending outdated/historical Offsite direction and managed moves forms and await the Granicus launch so that all Offsite direction and managed moves for this academic year can be recorded by the same notification system.
Please email: CS.Off-sitedirection@derbyshire.gov.uk with any queries.
