Report of the Director of Community and Children Services.

Governors received the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) 2015/16 Annual Report. In response to a query from a Governor, the LADO confirmed that there had been an increase in referrals from across all City Schools compared to previous years, but the majority had been of a nature that could be dealt with within the organisation involved, and the increase reflected improved mechanisms to capture incidents that qualified for referral.
