KSCB Business Plan
Three-year Business Plan
Current Business Plan:
The current Business Plan covers the period 2010 to 2013 and it retains the same six key objectives from the previous period which are:
- To strengthen and develop the partnership approach to safeguard and promote the welfare of children
- To minimise the incidence of child abuse and neglect
- To monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of what is done by the Local Authority and Safeguarding Board partners
- To communicate the need to safeguard and promote the welfare of children
- To review and investigate all child deaths
- To develop the skills and knowledge of workers in relation to safeguarding children.
The Business Plan takes into account the requirements of the statutory guidance ‘Working Together to Safeguard Children' (Department of Children, Schools and Families 2010), and it links with relevant strategic plans, for example, the Kirklees Children and Young People Plan and Kirklees Domestic Violence Strategy.

Previous business plans:
The first business plan of the Kirklees Safeguarding Children Board related to the period 2007-2010. The plan was reviewed by the Development and Business Planning Group in July 2010 and was subsequently formally signed off by the Safeguarding Board as having been completed. Where actions were recorded as ongoing work these have been carried forward into the current plan. A link to the 2007-2010 completed business plan is provided here: KSCB Business Plan 2007-2010
