Family Information Service (FIS)
Slough Family Information Service (FIS) offers FREE impartial information and guidance about a wide range of services for children, young people and their families in response to statutory duty placed on local authorities.
Toolkits
The child criminal exploitation tool is for anyone who works with children, including those who work in the voluntary sector. If you are worried that a child may be being exploited, this tool gives you a list of indicators to help you work it out and take appropriate action. Often, children do not recognise themselves as victims, or that they are being groomed, and as a result disclosures of such abuse can be unlikely. Therefore, this indicator tool aids the identification of exploitation. The tool can be accessed here.
Safeguarding
The purpose of this policy statement is to provide a clear commitment from SBC in relation to the responsibilities it holds to safeguard and protect children and young people in Slough; and provide parents, staff and volunteers with the overarching principles that guide our approach to safeguarding children and young people. This policy statement applies to anyone working on behalf of SBC, including senior managers, elected Members, paid staff, volunteers, sessional workers, agency staff and students.
