This guidance has been updated - following consultation, it will replace the 2005 publication "Statutory guidance on the roles and responsibilities of the Director of Children’s Services and Lead Member for Children’s Services". The guidance aims to explain how the roles of the LM and DCS are distinct and complementary - and how working together as a team, they can be most effective in driving clear improvements in outcomes for children and young people.
Launch Date:
18 Nov 2008
Closing Date: 10 Feb 2009

This consultation seeks views on Government proposals relating to amendments to the GTCE Disciplinary Functions Regulations, to require employers to notify the GTCE of cases where an employer has ceased to use the services of a teacher registered with the Council, or might have ceased to use those services, had the teacher not ceased to provide them, for reasons of misconduct which do not raise issues relating to the safety and welfare of children and young people.

On 24 September, the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families announced an imminent consultation on a new way of handling parents’ complaints to their child’s school. The consultation will run for eight weeks, closing on 21 November. The Children’s Plan committed the Government to look at ways of improving the current arrangements for parents’ complaints. The consultation invites comments on handling parents’ complaints to their child’s school affecting their child, including those which concern bullying. The DCSF is asking for views on ways to improve: handling of complaints at school level; the place of mediation services to resolve disagreements early on; and possible new arrangements to consider complaints that cannot be resolved at school level. The DCSF looks forward to hearing the views of as many people and organisations as possible including parents, parents’ organisations, governing bodies and governors’ organisations, local government, schools, teaching and support staff including professional bodies, and those with SEN interests.
Launch Date:
26 Sep 2008
Closing Date: 21 Nov 2008
