Service Development Plan 2013-2014
Action plan details
WindhillCC Network
October2013
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)

- 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.
