The judgements on children needing help and protection and children leaving care are they ‘require improvement to be good’. This rating is up from the last full inspection of Children’s Services back in 2019, when all areas were rated as inadequate.

Inspectors recognised the ‘strong, determined and cohesive leadership team’ who have made significant improvements since 2019 and their commitment and focus to make further improvements.

Agency staff are treated as part of the service and encouraged to attend transformational and other leadership events
