The report, published following an inspection by Ofsted in mid-June, rated services as “outstanding” in three areas: the impact of leaders on social work practice with children and families, the experiences and progress of children who need help and protection and overall effectiveness.
The experiences and progress of children in care and care leavers received a rating of “good".
