Information on the significant improvements we’ve made.
Our journey
A significant number of improvements have been made over recent years, which include:
- the appointment of a permanent department leadership team
- evidence of strong relationships with children and young people
- improved supervision and management oversight across the department
- implementation of a family safeguarding model and training of all staff in motivational interviewing - making positive changes which are beneficial and lasting for both children and families.
Our journey is supported by John Coughlan, the Independent Chair, and Hampshire County Council as our partner in practice.
We continue to work to accelerate the pace of our improvement work and believe we can make the changes so that West Sussex becomes an outstanding service for our children and young people.
