Description

AWARD of the Flexible Purchasing Framework
The City of Edinburgh Council has created a Flexible Purchasing Framework of providers in line with the National Improvement Framework for Education.  The vision for education in Edinburgh is to ensure excellence by raising attainment and improving outcomes through Accredited Pathways and Certified Counsellors and Therapists: ensuring that every child and young person achieves the highest standards in literacy and numeracy, as well as the knowledge and skills necessary to shape their future as successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens, and effective contributors.
The City of Edinburgh Council will realise this vision by achieving equity: ensuring every child and young person has the same opportunity to succeed, regardless of their background, social circumstances, additional needs or shared protected characteristics, with a particular focus on closing the poverty related attainment gap, and improving mental health and wellbeing.
In order to achieve this, The City of Edinburgh Council will work to reduce the Poverty Related Attainment Gap (PRAG) through a transdisciplinary approach.  Delivery of excellence will be achieved via the Edinburgh Imperative, which has four key themes to support reduction of the PRAG: Attendance, Literacy & Numeracy, Pathways, Health and Wellbeing.
Collaboration and relationship building with partner providers is a key theme to support young people’s outcomes being at the heart of everything we do.  Partner Providers will support schools to provide a service which ensures pupils receive high quality education which meets their needs, delivers improved educational outcomes and avoids exclusion.
The City of Edinburgh Council are encouraging a ‘Place Based’ approach to services and supports to families and young people.  The intention is to develop comprehensive supports that are within 20minutes of any identified need.

Children and Young People Short Breaks

Telford & Wrekin Council and Shropshire Council are seeking to commission a Foster Care Overnight Short Breaks service for children and young people (CYP) with disabilities and complex health needs across the county. The Children Act 2004 and the Breaks for Carers of Disabled Children Short Breaks Regulations 2011 require Local Authorities to provide services designed to give breaks for carers of children with disabilities. The Short Breaks offer aims to support the needs and aspirations of children and young people with disabilities, as well as support parent, carer and family wellbeing. Short Breaks provide an opportunity for CYP with disabilities to: spend time away from their carers; try out new things; have fun and make new friends; helps to support a child or young person’s social and emotional development; as well as providing them with new experiences and an opportunity to learn new skills. It is important that the short break gives the young person the opportunity to develop their independence in preparation for adulthood.  Short Break services span a range of activities, care and support options that a CYP with disabilities may need. A Short Break can last from a few hours to a few days, an evening, a weekend, and school holiday daytime activities, depending on assessed need. There is insufficient, local overnight Short Breaks across both Telford and Wrekin borough and Shropshire Local Authority areas. Therefore both Councils are seeking to jointly commission a Foster Care Short Breaks service for CYP with disabilities and complex health needs in the county. This aligns to both Council’s ambition to offer regulated, local and high quality overnight respite, within a homely environment.
