Following a conference where I brought together almost 100 practitioners across statutory agencies and community organisations to contribute to our thinking on developing our approach, we continue to build our approach with practitioners and communities. Tackling Domestic Abuse and Violence Against Women and Girls The Drive Project The Drive Project is being piloted by Croydon for London – supported by MOPAC and the Home Office through the Police Transformation Fund – as a result of a successful bid from Croydon and is one of only 6 areas that are testing this approach across the country.

We know that 1 in 4 perpetrators of domestic abuse are repeat offenders and that some perpetrators could victimise as many as six people alone. The Drive Project is focused on holding domestic abuse offenders to account to balance the range of services in Croydon focused on keeping survivors and their children safe.

  • Education in the New Addington Area Update
    Education in the New Addington Area New Addington is an area of high deprivation in Croydon where the majority of children would be deemed ‘disadvantaged’ or are part of families that are ‘just about managing’, a term used in the Government consultation “Schools that work for everyone”. The area has historically been dominated by low- aspirational white British families but is now seeing an increasing number of immigrant (sub-Sahara African and Eastern European) families moving into the area, creating new challenges for the six primary schools1 in New Addington. These schools have very different characteristics: Ofsted ratings range from Outstanding to Inadequate; most are now academies (two of which are converter); the majority of schools are undersubscribed creating financial pressures; and the reputation of each school is not linked to its academic achievement. Rowdown Primary School has traditionally had a poor reputation, yet has been regularly ranked second or third out of the six in the DfE Performance Tables2. Aspirational parents have their children go to Fairchildes and Wolsey Infants, both of which are oversubscribed, whether they research performance or listen to public opinion. Others just send their child to the nearest school leaving Rowdown and Castle Hill (situated in the most deprived part of New Addington) as the poor relations. This means Rowdown has often been at the lower end of the rankings after Early Years (ranking in the bottom 5% of all Croydon primary schools in 2011-2014) and that Reception cohorts are generally around 45-50 pupils only. Rowdown manages to achieve expected progress3 in line with national average4, one of only two schools in New Addington that can claim this in 2015, the other being its academy sponsor, Fairchildes.
