Corporate Parenting Strategy 2009-2012
This Corporate Parenting Strategy provides the framework for elected members, officers and partners in fulfilling their duties and responsibilities, as corporate parents of Looked After children and young people in Clackmannanshire.
Vision
"We are committed to ensuring every child and young person in our care has the opportunity to achieve the outcomes we would want for our own children."
What is a Corporate Parent?
Corporate Parenting means the formal and local partnerships needed between all local authority departments and services, and associated agencies, who are responsible for working together to meet the needs of Looked After children and young people, and care leavers.
Being a good corporate parent means:
- accepting responsibility for all children in the Council's care;
- keeping meeting the needs of looked after children and young people as a high priority;
- seeking the same outcomes, any good parent would want for their own child.
More information can be found on the Corporate Parentingwebsite.
