Locality Team Progress: • meetings have been set up in each neighbourhood chaired by Judy Boyce; • In future, problematic issues and examples of successful joint projects in all areas will be shared; • Feed back will be given from TAS meetings; • Recommendations and TAS reports will be passed to CTB sub group

  4. The Function of the Consortia: • to identify common needs between schools based on data submissions; • to establish moderation processes so that over time there is an increasingly accurate and common agreement on what constitutes thresholds of need including School Action Plus; • to identify common training needs, organise and deliver training; • to identify and share existing best practice in schools within the consortia; • to increase knowledge of and contact with the services available to support children.

  5. How was outreach time decided? • For secondary schools - BESD, CLD and ASD outreach allocations were calculated by SEN Managers and averaged over 3 years. • Primary outreach time allocation for consortia was based on PLASC returns from schools • Secondary CLD and ASD be distributed by panels • Some secondary BESD outreach time has been given to the FAP

What do we know? • we know what is working well and what needs refining; • reports to Locality Team to include number of individual cases heard at each TAS meeting and number of CAFs opened; • schools will know whether outcomes for pupils are improved. Have children and families benefited from the multi agency approach provided by the TAS model? How can we evidence this?
