Children and Young People's Services: a vision to encourage and
enable all children and young people in Suffolk to aspire to and
achieve their potential.
The Children and Young People's Service Office brings
together Suffolk County Council's eduaction, youth and health
services and services for vulnerable children.
Our aims and responsibilities
We are changing the way we deliver services for children, young
people, parents and carers in Suffolk, ensuring that they are
involved in the design and development of services as much as
possible. Our vision is to encourage and enable all children and
young people in Suffolk to aspire to and achieve their potential.
Through radical change and improvements in the way that children’s
services are planned and delivered we will:
- aim for every child and young person in Suffolk to achieve
their aspirations, to be healthy and safe, to contribute
successfully to their community and have a successful transition to
adulthood, by ensuring high quality services which meet local and
national objectives;
- give extra attention and support to those children and young
people with additional needs, and will support and involve parents
and carers in the design and delivery of services;
- strive to achieve ever-higher standards and improved outcomes
for all children and young people in Suffolk within the available
resource, by improving performance and efficiency; and
- work across all agencies to develop shared values and culture,
to ensure that children and young people, their parents and carers,
get a joined up service.
How we will do this: the Suffolk Children’s Trust
Partnership
Along with local management through the Service
Office and our 18 Community Clusters, the
Suffolk Children’s Trust Partnership brings together all
the organisations that deliver services for children and young
people in the county.
