• Used the engagement on the Tower
Hamlets Plan (2017) as a starting point
• Built on this insight with:

released in 2018. 1,824 pupils took part: 1,433 primary pupil
responses from 21 schools and 391 secondary pupil responses from
schools
– The Parent and Carer Survey (Summer 2018) - 209 parents and
carers
– Children’s Services Summer Survey (Summer 2018) - A
total of 126 teenagers and pre-teens, and 22 parents and carers (of
42 children)
• CYP Summit (November 2018)
– attended by over 100 delegates including statutory and
voluntary partners, and young people
• Children and Families Partnership Board discussions - All
meetings since July
• Engagement with younger children in primary school and
nursery has been conducted through December and January which has
focused on the focus on direction of the proposed priorities.
• Engagement carried out for the development of the Learning
and Achievement Strategy for 14 to 25 year olds has also informed
the Children and Families Strategy

As above
Has an Equality Analysis been carried out and if so the result of this Assessment?: An EqIA is being developed alongside the Strategy, it will be updated as the Strategy is updated to ensure that equalities are considered whenever a change is made. An Equalities Checklist has been completed for the Learning and Achievement Strategy for 14 to 25 year olds with no further action required at this stage. The final EqIA will be completed when the final version of the Strategy is completed.
