Birmingham Brighter Futures focuses on improving: • physical health • behaviour • emotional health • literacy and numeracy • social literacy • job skills
How? By using the 4 building blocks to design services: • Outcomes based planning • All children and children in need • Data • What works evidence
All children and children in need – a developmental framework Know which group of children we are targeting, against which outcomes, appropriate to age or capacity All children – universal approach to improve an outcome Children in need – specific group based on needs of that Group, Eg reducing teenage pregnancy
Outcomes based planning - Developing services using a logical approach… • Outcomes • Activities • Investments • Outputs
What is an outcome? What is an output? Which is which? Impact of activities (generally a service or set of services) on children’s development A measure of activities intended to lead to an outcome Happy, school attendance, safe, adequately assessed, victim of crime, depressed, child protection register.
