Children and Young People's Plan 2009-11

Suffolk’s second Children and Young People’s Plan (CYPP2) was approved by the Children’s Trust Partnership Board in July 2009.

Suffolk Children and Young People's Plan 2009-11

The Plan sets out the Children’s Trust Partnership’s vision for children and young people and their families, and the 11 cross-cutting priorities that the Trust feels are the most important issues that it needs to focus on over the next two years.  The priorities are spread across the five Every Child Matters (ECM) Outcomes:

  • Be Healthy
  • Stay Safe
  • Enjoy & Achieve
  • Make a Positive Contribution
  • Achieve Economic Well-being

The Plan also details how we are implementing a ‘Change for Children’ programme in Suffolk – through developing inter-agency governance, integrated strategy, integrated processes and integrated service delivery to help improve outcomes for children and young people and their families.  Much of this activity is referred to in more detail in the Children’s Trust’s Early Intervention and Prevention Strategy, which is one of the companion documents to CYPP2.

The Trust's Vision and Priorities have also been produced as a poster.

The priorities in CYPP2 were chosen by the Children’s Trust Partnership Board in March 2009 following a comprehensive assessment of local need.  The information derived from this exercise has been brought together in a Needs Analysis document which is another important component of the family of documents that support CYPP2

CYPP2 Needs Analysis

Each of the 11 CYPP2 priorities in is supported by more detailed Priority Actions Plans – these are produced annually and progress against the plans is monitored regularly by the Children’s Trust Partnership.  These will be available shortly.  The Action Plans are based on ‘storyboards’ which were developed following the Needs Analysis and which explain in detail the rationale for why the priorities were selected and the focus for the priority.
