Reviewing services provided to local people

The Children's Services Scrutiny Committee is one of the Council’s 5 scrutiny committees.  The Children's Services Scrutiny Committee is responsible for reviewing matters related to the council's education function. For this reason, there are co-opted members on the committee: two parent-governor positions, and representatives of the Church of England and Roman Catholic Diocese. The registers of interest for the co-opted members is below.

·        Sophie McNeill – Parent Governor Representative (Primary)

·        Susie Graves – Parent Governor Representative (Secondary)

·        Mary Clement – Roman Catholic Diocese Representative

·        Nick Turpin – Church of England Representative


During a review, committee members gather evidence in a variety of ways, including visiting organisations and other local authorities and receiving witness evidence, including from residents. When the committee has all the evidence they need, they make a number of recommendations to Executive to improve services and monitor their implementation 12 months on.
