Provision of children's centre services in Bromyard area

To approve proposals for the delivery of children’s centre services for the Bromyard area from October 2018.

 

Services are currently provided by an external provider under contract, which is due to end on 30 September 2018.

 

There are differences in the way that resources are allocated across the county. There is also some variation in performance against key children centre service objectives.  It is intended to procure a new service on a tapered funding basis that will align the resources allocated for the Bromyard area to those elsewhere by March 2021, which will be linked to improving performance within a strategic management approach involving all children’s centre services across Herefordshire.
