Description and Table of Contents
Description
How will the Children Act affect work with disabled children? This guidance outlines the responsibilities of social services departments (SSDs) under the Act, stating that they have a clear duty to provide services to children with disabilities. Treating disabled children as "children first" is of paramount importance. However, there is a need for all staff who may be involved in providing a service to a child with a disability to be aware of legislation, and SSDs should ensure that advice, expertise and resources are available for their staff when needed.
