Supporting care experienced children, young people and their families during Covid-19 - September Communication

2 October 2020

Within your school you are likely to have on roll, children who have been in care and now adopted or placed under a Special Guardianship or Child Arrangements order.

All these children will have been affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences. Therefore, there is a strong possibility that they have also been affected more by the impact of the situation caused by the current Covid pandemic. As a result, schools need to be aware of this and be proactive in carefully planning ongoing support for this cohort of children.

Please see the full September Communication and sign up for future editions by emailing VSKPLAC@kent.gov.uk.
