Children and Young People’s Service Divisions and Main Service Areas Children’s Social Care Division The over-riding purpose of this service is to ensure all children are safeguarded, and that vulnerable children and young people’s needs are addressed early and effectively. The service works with partner agencies in the early identification of children in need, and helps support them to prevent more serious problems arising later. The Children Acts 1989 and 2004 and related guidance and regulation are the main legal basis for the service. These have been supplemented by subsequent guidance, the most significant of which has been the Quality Protects programme, and more recently the Every Child Matters programme. The division’s aim is to ensure that Lambeth children who are in need are able to achieve the same standard of wellbeing, health, development and safety that a good parent would want for their own child. Children’s Social Care Division is organised in a number of services: Multi-Agency Safeguarding, Quality Assurance and Service Development Multi-agency Family Support Multi-Agency Children Looked After Multi-Agency Referral and Assessment The key priorities for the Social Care Division in 2010/2011 are: Further improving outcomes for Children Looked After Ensuring that vulnerable children are safeguarded by improving the quality and consistency of front line practice Further improving recruitment, development and retention of social workers Inclusion and Standards Division The division provides a range of services to support and challenge schools to improve their performance for Lambeth's residents particularly in the areas of numeracy and literacy. It aims to help local pupils achieve their full potential at school by ensuring a fully inclusive education service. The Division promotes high standards in the borough’s schools and ensures that all the available resources, particularly the skills and abilities of staff, are used to raise standards of achievement. The division is made up of two main service areas: Inclusion – including Special Education Needs, Reintegration and Assessment, Education Psychology Service Standards – including School Improvement Service, Ethnic Minority Achievement The main priorities of the Inclusion and Standards Division include: Raising the achievement of all pupils Improving services for children and young people with disabilities and special needs Improving opportunities for 14-19 year olds Ensuring the particular need of individual pupils are met in the education service and that schools provide inclusive education Improving transition from childhood to adulthood Supporting schools to raise achievement 19
