Page 3 Minutes [NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED] 5 Head Start Phase 3 - Progress and Impact Update Emma Cleary, HeadStart Programme Manager, introduced the report and welcomed HeadStart Ambassadors Armani Osbourne and Emerson Morris to the meeting. The HeadStart Ambassadors commented on the positive impact on their lives of being involved in the programme and introduced a video which gave a summary of the main evaluation findings. The Ambassadors talked about the positive impact that their involvement in HeadStart has had on them particularly around gaining new skills and confidence. The panel thanked the HeadStart Ambassadors for their presentation. The HeadStart Programme Manager commented on the progress of the programme since the previous update report in July 2016. The HeadStart Programme Manager explained that the programme was aimed at developing and testing new ways of supporting children and young people with emotional mental health and wellbeing. The HeadStart Programme Manager briefed the panel on the five strategic outcomes of the programme and the links to other national policies aimed at ensuring at improving the mental health and wellbeing of the children and young people. The HeadStart Programme Manager gave further details of the progress of funded commissioned programmes and projects in the target areas. The main findings of the evaluation have been summarised in Appendix 1 of the report. The HeadStart Programme Manager commented on the positive findings in table 5.1. which showed much higher levels of participation by young people than expected and the success of engaging a high number of professionals who have also benefitted from the programme. The HeadStart Programme Manager outlined the options being considered to sustain the work of programme when the funding ends. An implementation plan will be jointly developed with young people, parents and professionals to explore opportunities to sustain the programme after the funding from Big Lottery ends in July 2021. The plan will be drafted by January 2019. The panel discussed the methodology for assessing the number of young people who reported experiencing an emotional problem, who have been assessed has having benefited from the work of the programme. The HeadStart Programme Manager explained that the outcomes framework document details the methodology used to measure the success of the programme initiatives in meeting its strategic aims. The HeadStart programme provides support at four different intervention levels in the target area as detailed in the report. The HeadStart Programme Manager explained that no formal assessment is done of a young person’s mental health condition. The HeadStart Programme Manager added that the programme is aimed at testing new ways of delivering early interventions and prevention projects that can support young people. The HeadStart Programme Manager added that HeadStart it is not a targeted programme, whereby assessment will be made on young people who many need more specialist support. However, HeadStart may help young people navigate that pathway. The HeadStart programme is aimed at young people needing low level support. Page 4 Minutes [NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED] The local and national evaluation will use a Local Evaluation Measure to assess changes over time in a person’s level of resilience. In addition, the HeadStart Partnership Board agreed to collect data against the indicators, with information available from April 2018. The panel queried the membership of the HeadStart Partnership Board and the reporting and monitoring arrangements for the programme. The HeadStart Programme Manager explained that findings are reported to Children’s Trust Board and Health and Wellbeing Board. The Scrutiny Officer agreed to send details of the membership to panel members for information. The panel queried the impact of the reduced allocation funding over a period of years as shown in para 7.2 of the report. The HeadStart Programme Manager explained that Big Lottery expect successful bidders to look at developing sustaining the programme beyond the funding period and secure funding to continue the delivery of successful projects. The HeadStart Programme Manager explained that this will present a challenge to HeadStart Partnership Board about how this can be done at a time of increased budget pressures. The panel welcomed the progress made by the programme and agreed to receive a presentation on the sustainability plan presented to a future meeting of the panel. Resolved: 1. The HeadStart Programme Manager present the findings of the sustainability plan to a future meeting of the panel with details of the options being considered. 2.

Driven by a 24% increase in births between 2002 and 2016, levels of demand for school provision have increased significantly in recent years. In excess of 3,000 additional places have been commissioned since 2012 in primary schools and since 2017 in secondary schools, to cater for the demographic uplift. The recently witnessed increase in demand for primary provision in the City, has already started to impact on the City’s secondary estate and significant additional capacity will be required to cater for future cohorts.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.
