Prior to our involvement with the MH:2K project, participation and engagement with young people had been somewhat patchy across Nottinghamshire County and Nottingham City. Whilst there had been some excellent work undertaken from numerous stakeholders across the system, including Nottinghamshire Healthcare Foundation Trust and respective Local Authorities, Commissioners struggled to pull this all together into something meaningful that could be used as a case for change and transformation. Engagement and participation is a key focus within our Joint Local Transformation Plan for Children and Young People’s Emotional and Mental Health, which is our local driver behind the national Future in Mind Report. When the opportunity presented itself to work with Involve and Leaders Unlocked on the MH:2K programme, we knew it was an opportunity not to be missed and would potentially provide rich and powerful information, not only for our Local Transformation Plan but also wider transformation and development work across the system. Our experience of working with Involve, Leaders Unlocked and the 30 Citizen Researchers has been truly inspirational.

  • Samworth Academy (NUSA)
    Date: xxx 2014 Contact: Esme Macauley www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk Tel: 0115 876 3382 Email: [email protected] Nottingham schools make a comeback The schools being turned around after “Inadequate” judgements last year are “making a strong recovery”, education bosses say. Last December seven City schools and academies were judged to be failing their pupils by the Government education watchdog Ofsted. The schools rapidly drew up improvement plans to tackle the problems identified. The City Council intervened to give specialist support. One year on and Ofsted has endorsed the progress being made in schools to get back on track. Making strides in behaviour and attendance Two of the first improvements are better pupil behaviour and attendance. Twelve months ago all of the schools had attendance rates well below the national average. Today the figures have improved by up to 4% and are now more in line with attendance rates nationally. Pupil behaviour has also improved with more students demonstrating a good attitude to learning. Educations bosses put the improvements down to the consistent enforcement of attendance and behaviour policies. Cllr Sam Webster, Executive Assistant for Schools at the City Council, said: “The improvements in school attendance are really quite remarkable. It is incredibly challenging to turn around poor attitudes to learning, to ensure more pupils are consistently at school and working hard. “School leaders have to be congratulated for embracing new policies and approaches. They have consistently taken a zero tolerance stance to unauthorised school absence and poor behaviour such as swearing, wearing trainers and using mobile phones.
