2. Our Seven Key Priorities for the year ahead: An ambitious education offer for all children and a focused intervention on closing the education gap for vulnerable groups.

3. Identification of need at the earliest opportunity and ensuring Early Intervention and Prevention by providing timely and easy access to support for families through an integrated single front door for safeguarding (MASH).

4. Services that are integrated in order to meet the priorities families have set for us ensuring families receive a seamless lead professional service and only have to tell their story once.

5. A dedicated focus on identified key groups of vulnerable residents - Children at risk of Child Sexual Exploitation, child and adults experiencing domestic abuse and Care Leavers.

6. Where children cannot safely and effectively be brought up within their own families, our interventions will be timely and our service provision of a good standard to ensure our Looked After Children population subscribes to 'Right child, right time, right placement, only for as long as necessary'.

7. A strengthened Quality Assurance function across all services ensuring that our internal provision can be assured as safe, effective and responsive to feedback.

8. A workforce development strategy delivering a permanent and stable workforce. We are up-skilling all of our staff working in universal services and settings in order that they can offer preventative support before the need for targeted intervention. We are also ensuring that staff working in enhanced and specialist service areas are sufficient, well-trained and effectively supported.
