Description

The Contract is for the provision of services for Enhanced Inclusion Support Pathways In the London Borough of Waltham Forest and aims to:

• Keep more children and young people safe, well, resilient and independent, and support them to get the most from educational opportunities in mainstream schools, wherever possible;
• Build capacity in Waltham Forest schools and settings to respond to social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs of children, to reduce the need for exclusion from school, and to improve children's life chances;
• Strengthen our response to children at risk of exclusion through commissioning and delivery of an evidence-led and trauma-informed menu of enhanced supports and interventions designed to reduce the need for children to be excluded from our schools and settings;
• Develop a holistic approach to inclusion and AP that reduces harms and poor outcomes, such as NEET, offending, missing from home, exploitation and abuse, drug dealing, substance misuse, serious youth violence and harmful sexual behaviour;
• Apply a multi-disciplinary approach with expertise in safeguarding, youth justice, mental health, early help, family support, parenting, education, and health that joins up support pathways via assessment, planning, intervention and provision to reduce risks of exclusion and poor outcomes.
• strengthening emotional health and well-being;
• reducing offending rates of young people educated outside mainstream.
