A - Z Strategies and Plans

Newcastle's Children and Young People's Plan (CYPP) 2011 - 2014 will set out how partners will work together to make a difference to the life chances and outcomes for children and young people.

From April 2011 the CYPP is the responsibility of Newcastle Children's Trust Board. The Children's Trust is a partnership between the city council, schools, health service agencies, the police, Newcastle College, Job Centre Plus and a range of public and voluntary sector partners. Together, we are jointly accountable for producing, delivering and monitoring the effectiveness of the plan.

The CYPP covers all children and young people in Newcastle aged 0 to 19 years old and some groups of vulnerable young people up to the age of 25.

Implementing the Community Engagement Protocol in Children’s Services

Newcastle City Council has recently introduced a policy which will help to streamline the community and stakeholder consultation that is undertaken in the City. This will help to ensure that different parts of the council and its partners work together to gather information, identify whether another similar piece of consultation has taken place and identify resources that may be able to help with the consultation. Further guidance can be found on the Community Engagement Protocols page.
