The impact of integrated services on children and their families in Sure Start children's centres

10 Jul 2009 Ofsted

Ref: 080253

This report evaluates the impact of integrated services on children, parents and families in 20 children’s centres.

The effective integration of services is having a positive impact in terms of support for children and parents in over half of the centres visited. Three centres were judged as making an outstanding difference. Challenges remain with onward links with primary schools, in reaching the most vulnerable families and in developing data on outcomes for parents and children. The least effective partnership working seen was between the children’s centres and Jobcentre Plus.
