Childlink
Childlink is a digital tool that displays information about a child to authorised key professionals who have responsibility for child wellbeing and safety. Childlink shows limited but critical information, such as a child’s participation in key early childhood and education services.
By providing information, Childlink helps authorised key professionals to:
- collaborate with other services and professionals working with the child and their family
- identify needs, issues and vulnerabilities that may be present earlier and provide the support necessary to prevent an escalation of harm
- make more informed decisions about the wellbeing, safety, and support needs of a child in their school or service
- Security and privacy are core to the design of Childlink and strict safeguards are in place to protect information.
