We are really pleased and excited to announce, DDC have re-partnered with Network for Education Excellence (nEdEx) for the 2026/27 academic year. This continues a successful collaboration, focused on supporting schools, trusts, and education leaders across the UK.
The renewed agreement strengthens DDC’s commitment to the education sector through our yearly partnership, reinforcing shared values around safeguarding, compliance, leadership, and innovation in education.
As a trusted provider of DBS, social media and pre-employment screening services, DDC has worked closely with nEdEx to offer support to education organisations improve safer recruitment practices and maintain high safeguarding standards. The continued partnership will see DDC remain actively involved throughout the year with ongoing advice, engagement opportunities, and sector collaboration initiatives.
DDC will also be attending and sponsoring this year’s nEdEx event taking place in October, where education leaders, trusts, schools, and sector partners will come together to share best practice and discuss the future of education leadership. In addition, DDC will also have sponsorship involvement across selected nEdEx events throughout 2027.
nEdEx continues to expand its national network for education excellence, bringing together education leaders, trusted partners, and innovative suppliers to drive meaningful change across the sector. In less than a year since being founded, Network for Education Excellence is a finalist for “Collaboration within Education of the Year” for Crescent Purchasing Consortium.
DDC’s ongoing involvement further demonstrates its dedication to supporting education providers with fast, secure, and fully compliant pre-employment screening solutions, including DBS checks, digital identity verification, online and social media searches and safeguarding services.
If you are an education provider and want to find out more, become part of the network, or register for any future events with nEdEx you can do that here. We hope to see you at one of the events!
