  1. Children’s Services and the Big Society Heading Sub heading Body text Where do schools fit in? Justin Donovan and Jenny Coles

  2. “For all children and young people in Hertfordshire to have a happy, healthy and safe childhood that prepares them well for adult life and enables them to reach their full potential.”(CYPP 2011/12) A New Children Services Framework A Vision:

  3. The New Political and Financial Landscape • Autonomy for schools and greater isolation of Heads • Public sector debt • Education Bill • SEN Green Paper • Munro Review • James Review • Academies and Free Schools • Big Society • ……………… • Reduction in the size of the LA • Reduced school budgets and significantly reduced LA spending • Reduced capital with greater targeting from the centre • Fewer priorities and a greater focus on outcomes for children

  4. The On-going Gap in Public Sector Funding Demand for Year 7 Places

  5. Some Painful Decisions Direct impact on schools, children, families and communities • Terms and conditions of services- including low paid support staff • Removal of discretionary transport- reneging on previous agreements • Removal of grant funded services- deletion of whole teams • Reduction in social care and disabilities budgets • More to come - a further £60m

  8. Education and Early Intervention Two Key Objectives • Children and young people are kept safe; and • Excellent educational outcomes for every child and young person

  9. Education and Early Intervention Excellent educational outcomes for every child and young person • a good early education forevery child; • a good school for every child; • narrowing the gap inattainment and wellbeing; and • ensuring the vulnerable can learn, achieve and succeed.

  10. Statistical Neighbours Ranking Raising Educational Outcomes Further

  11. Raising Educational Outcomes Further • Improvement in inclusion related data over the same period: • Reduced fixed term and permanent exclusions by 68% • Improved attendance and reduced persistent absence - from above NA • Attainment gap closing for some vulnerable groups and key communities

  12. Raising Educational Outcomes Further Because - too many pupils still reach the end of KS4: • before their special needs have been addressed in full • with a very poor attendance record • known to the youth justice system • having missed learning through exclusions • In need of significant support from specialist services • having underachieved, especially if from a minority ethnic community

  13. Multi-agency teams locally based within district boundaries Schools deciding whether or not to work in partnerships LA responding tolocal school groupings Funding devolved to schools- bought back or not Targeted Services - School Partnerships

  14. Targeted Services - School Partnerships Avoiding the Icebergs • LA needs to ensure statutoryrequirements are met in full • A community of schoolsdespite their diverse nature • Transparent and fair distribution of resources • Avoid forcing some schools to collaborate reluctantly • Very difficult change for CSF based services- a significant change in culture

  20. Existing strategic partnership arrangements

  21. Proposed strategic partnership arrangements (Review March 2012) Minimal prescription Form to follow function Simplicity

  22. Health and Wellbeing Board The Health and Social Care Bill will require a health and wellbeing board in every upper tier local authority. Health and wellbeing boards will include elected representatives, local HealthWatch and key local commissioners for health and social care, including GP consortia and DsPH, adult social care and children’s services. Obligation for LA’s and GP consortia through health and wellbeing board to prepare the joint strategic needs assessment (JSNA) and develop a high-level "joint health and wellbeing strategy" (JHWS) that spans the NHS, social care, public health and could potentially consider wider health determinants such as housing, or education. Flexibility for health and wellbeing boards both between and within local authority areas. Some GP consortia boundaries may be coterminous with local authority areas, but others will not. “Whatever makes sense locally”. Health and wellbeing boards will provide a key forum for public accountability of NHS, public health, social care for adults and children and other commissioned services that are directly related to health and wellbeing.

  23. Health and Wellbeing Board April 2012 ‘Shadow’ health and wellbeing boards, in every upper-tier authority April 2011 Hertfordshire early implementer with core membership 2012/13 Partnership without statutory powers and duties; but all boards will need to start preparation to: - carry out JSNAs, - develop JHWSs April 2013 GP consortia and LAs receive NHS commissioning and public health allocations Timetable
