What we want to make better
There are lots of things we want to make better for children and their families, we will do this by working on the four areas below.
Well-being
- Help for children that are being bullied.
- Someone to talk to when there are problems at home like when parents split up.
- Making sure children and parents get health workers.
- Help to make children feel safe from crime or harm.
Playing well
We want to make sure that you have:
- More fun and more chances to play.
- More chances for children with disabilities to play.
- Trained staff to provide safe play.
Learning well
- Help for children to do better at school.
- A Walking Bus company to help children walk to school.
