Setting the Scene
That Was Then…This Is Now
Partnership with Impact
A Simple Plan
On The Horizon –National and Local Challenges
Joint Area Review 2007• Outcomes for children adequate and
improving…BUT• Arrangements to ensure that all children
and young people are safe are inadequate• Overall performance rating for Children’s
Services reduced from good to adequate• Strong service leadership and good
capacity to improve• External support and challenge to
accelerate improvement in social care performance
• Strengthen performance management and impact of key partnerships
Progress…One Year OnProgress…One Year OnGood progress in response to key issues from inspection - ‘safe staffing’, now secure
Improvement in safeguarding and the outcomes for children looked after – ‘Staying Safe’ is now at least ‘adequate’.
Performance management improved significantly - ‘Service Management’ is now ‘good’.
Strong ‘direction of travel’ over past twelve months - ‘adequate’ to ‘good’?
