“The TLM year 6 questionnaire uncovered that a child was finding things difficult and was worried about her physical development. The child voiced she was having suicidal thoughts. Because of this information, I could refer her to specialist support services straight away, provide emotional support and create further opportunities to talk about her feelings.”

Transforming child safeguarding with Kent Community Health
Moving away from reactive safeguarding activities to proactive support of children and young people.
The Kent School Health team, part of Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust, works with children, adolescents and families with responsibility for approximately 300,000 children and 600 schools across the region.
Their role is to safeguard children and identify risks for early intervention and protection, including families, schools, the NHS and child protection services including the police when necessary.
Making children safer with the NHS in Derby.
We've created a solution that's improved the safety of over 14,000 children who have been assessed earlier enabling the appropriate intervention and preventative support, which may otherwise have been missed.
The NHS in Derby works with schools, social services and healthcare professionals to deliver School Nursing Support to Derby City’s 50,000 children annually between the ages of 5 to 19.
After being historically focused more on safeguarding they began a transformation during March 2020 to provide a more rounded, needs based support for the children and young people of Derby City.
Recognising that early intervention was of critical importance The Lancaster Model (TLM) offered a package of both service transformation and a digital solution to meet their needs.
