WINDHILL CHILDRENS CENTRES NETWORK Service Development Plan 2013-2014 Action plan details Windhill CC Network October 2013 This is an action plan detailing the priorities set by the CCHIP as part of the Local Authority Performance review. These objectives are reviewed at three meetings across the academic year and progress against them noted. These will underpin planning, resource allocation and the building of a portfolio of evidence to support Ofsted inspections. There are also additional targets that relate to our own identified capacity for improvements with regard to quality of access and impact. Priority 1: Children’s Centre Performance Measure CP02 (a,b,c) Linked to section 1 SEF – Access to services Priority Target: New targets to include ongoing analysis of new birth data and under 1’s registrations, in particular EH5 (lowest reg levels) To actively target households within the LSOA’s with lower reg levels generally & particularly re: under 1’s. To increase the proportion of under 1’s living in the CC localities registered at the Network Objective 1.1 To continue to monitor the monthly birth data Specific Actions (dated) Person/s Responsible analyse with current registrations and C2C’s JH ensure that registrations are uploaded onto Estart asap NCP Success Criteria monthly registrations will match birth data Specific Monitoring (dated) end of month REACH analysis at CCM meetings CCN to compare the Q4 PbR data (once available) with new birth data – then review the non registrations and seek to find out why. OM/KB/JH to analyse 1.2 To produce BME figures for under 1’s registrations At month end data collection – run the relevant Estart report Odette Morgan CCNM Karen Buffham DCCNM Lee Routledge NCC Evaluation of impact monthly – reg levels for under 1’s will rise and good progress noted overall Resource Implication access to LIS birth data is limited time at CCHIP review Continue to analyse by LSOA monthly to identify key priority targets/share updated progress with team/CCMC/families Sept 2013 – OM/KB/NCP to highlight lowest reg LSOA’S & target them asap. Regular registrations are uploaded onto Estart Person responsible OM/KB CCHIP summer review indicates Q4 PbR increase of 19.5% over the year. ICT Office supplies/reprogar phics No extra cost involved JH NCP Month on month the data will improve and we will have a clear overview of the BME communities across the CC Breakdown of ethnicity Mapping of trends If larger populations of specific ethnicity is noted these will impact on service delivery/info etc Estart Time Reprographics 2 Post June 2013 CCHIP this was removed as a priority action. We established verification of local knowledge re: key trends. 1.3 To have continued presence at WBC’s across the locality Ensure that the C2C/reg forms are given to all new babies either at clinics or by home visits To align with more regularity at the EH5 clinics – to boost reg data All CC team (less NCP) have booked slots at these clinics Identify specific team member to align with EH5 Month on month data will improve Registrations in EH5 will steadily increase – end August 2013 reg now 71% End of month REACH analysis EH5 monthly data will improve September 2013 – now have Baby PALS in hall adjacent to the WBC effecting even more integrated partnership working and access to (new) families with babies. 1.4 To continue to deliver the ‘1st Parents’ Course with the HV team Arrange timely meetings with HV team lead to review the delivery and future dates of this work in partnership Sept 2013 KB manages this cascades as necessary. Dates for Sept 2013 – July 2014 confirmed. Share this info with all team members across both organisations Organise rota of relevant staff to deliver sessions (x5 weeks)to include ‘Welcome session’ and My Baby Brain input Enables trends to be noted e.g. majority still WB but steady increase of WOTH such as Eastern European. No extra costs involved Overall universal registrations will continue to rise supporting the achievement of ‘most’ families reg i.e. 8096% Staff capacity to attend WBC’s More families in target area’s will have reg with the CCN OM/KB/ORW/ PR Courses are booked up with new parents Attendance rates are high – improving COSTS: Employed x1 more play-worker x 30 hrs pw, prorata H3.1,(£15,725) with cover of EH5 WBC as specific role Venue hire for Charis Centre & Thorley CC = £3800 Breast feeding rates will show improvement – small incremental change Q4 PbR – September 2013 New parents will be better informed of CC activities Staff Event data can be analysed including BME New parents will be informed of the ‘Five to Thrive’ benefits for their babies MBB resource Follow up to benefits can be organised.
