The structure, governance and work of the CYP Partnership

Successes 2010-2013

The CYP Partnership has demonstrated a very strong track record of success over the last three years. The Plan established in 2010 delivered accelerated progress for children and young people in Thurrock:

• 
  Educational attainment has improved significantly with children in the early years and foundation stages achieving well, giving them a head start in education.
  
• 
  Schools, nurseries and early years settings are improving with new examples of outstanding practice in primary and early years settings alongside existing areas of excellence in secondary provision.
  

• 
  Secondary school exclusions have fallen considerably, with better prospects for pupils able to stay full time in school.
  
• 
  The number of adults qualified to level 2 and level 3 has improved significantly and closed the gap with the national average.
  
• 
  Despite a challenging financial climate, the number of young people not in education, employment or training continues to fall.
  

• 
  Inspections in Thurrock in 2012 showed services are strong. (Youth Offending Service, Adoption Service and Safeguarding and Looked After Children all graded ‘Good’).
  
• 
  Staff training and retention in Thurrock is excellent (86% of Thurrock trained staff as social workers during the past 8 years, have been retained in Thurrock). Ten Children’s Services’ managers are participating in Aspiring Leaders training with another ten on Masters Level leadership modules through the University of Essex.
  

• 
  The pathfinder Community Hub was agreed by Cabinet in November 2012. The full implementation is in the planning phase. Part one of the strategy contains more detail on this central transformation programme. We know already that families want and achieve most if the response is very timely and if they continue existing relationships and if their own community is part of the response.
  
• 
  The Troubled Families programme has identified its first 110 families. The Troubled Families’ team are recruiting volunteers to work with families on day to day living and routines.
  

The 2013-16 Plan builds on the successes of the last three years. The aims have been changed to reflect the changed economic and policy landscape as well as the local context:
