Derby and Derbyshire Safeguarding Children Partnership
Helping to keep children and young people safe in Derby and Derbyshire
Additional Training Resources
A range of additional training resources are available and can be used in a number of different ways. Some resources may help you in your role or can be used in training and development sessions with other staff. Some of the materials are suitable for use with children and young people. DDSCP welcomes feedback about training materials and any impact that using the resources has made.
If you want more information about the use of the training resources, please email ddscp@derby.gov.uk.
Resources currently available
Listen to our Modern Slavery podcast which has been produced with Pop Gill, Community and Cohesion Manager with Derby City Council.
Recognising, Responding, Referring and Recording - a six minute film which condenses key messages with the help of input and voices of children from the Children in Care Council and Firs Primary School.
The film Court Etiquette gives you information about how to prepare yourself prior to attending court and what to expect from an unfamiliar environment.
The film 'Top 10 Tips' gives you advice on how to behave when giving evidence or when you are cross examined
The DDSCP also runs a half day course to give multi-agency staff the opportunity to practice giving evidence and being cross examined in a supportive environment. Please see the course programme. If you apply, come dressed for court (this means formal and smart professional clothes, similar to a job interview).

The 'Count Your Blessings, Not Your Problems' was produced by young people in Derby to give advice to parents and professionals.
