 report “Future Support Plan (February 2024) is available in draft form, pending further comment from DfE. 6.7. The final summary report We wrote our “DDSF1a final report” (March 2024, this document), as a record of the project lifecycle, and a signposting document to the other important project artifacts. This is an important reference document for colleagues interested in working with the SSD or understanding its design, and we will look to publish this alongside other project outputs when DfE colleagues have considered them. 7. Connections to other projects 7.1. The DDSF 1b projects (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) The DfE’s original vision for the Data and Digital Solutions Fund (DDSF) was that four data development projects – the “1b” projects – would produce outputs which could be assimilated into the SSD on completion. These were envisaged as projects to develop new standard datasets for key areas of interest – kinship care, pre-proceedings, Section 251 (financial information), and the voice of the child. One of these projects – pre-proceedings – produced an indicative dataset and completed a test collection from a large number of LAs, before handing over project outputs to DfE. The new dataset has not yet been adopted for sector-wide use. In the SSD, we have built the likely data format into our specification, but have marked this as currently inactive, as LAs are not currently commonly gathering this information in their core CMS products. Of the remaining projects, the S251 and child voice projects are likely to produce similar recommendations to DfE, either for new data items in a proposed structure, or for reorganisation of existing data into new structures. At the time of writing this work is incomplete. The kinship care project became an investigation into the s
