01

We can create sufficiency strategy that allows each local area within your authority to provide local and needs-specific support to children.

We model how demand for children’s services will evolve in the coming years across your local authority. We can:

• Create caseload forecasts for different age groups, needs types and placement types specific to each local area in your authority.

• Identify sufficiency priorities that are resource-efficient, improve outcomes and prevent escalation of needs for children.

• Model the financial benefit of supporting children with local provision and services.

02

We can implement AI and machine learning to create predictive analysis and prevention models that identify the first signs of needs.

We build prevention models unique to the context and trends of your local authority. We can:

• Evaluate how geographical variation of deprivation, health and living conditions impact a child’s likelihood to have social care needs or SEND.

• Assess how pupil-level events at school or at home impact a child’s risk rating of entering care or being excluded.

• Embed predictive analysis into your teams’ ways of working to guide daily decisions and meet needs before they escalate.

03

We can run a detailed diagnostic of why the needs of children are growing in your local authority and how this can be addressed.

We identify the changing trends of incoming needs and create specific plans on how to support those cohorts before they enter statutory services, leading to plans that your teams can implement immediately. We can:

• Do deep dive analysis into which schools and local areas are biggest contributors to growing needs.

• Review individual cases to understand common barriers to meeting need upstream.

• Creation of financially-evaluated workstream plans to meet needs earlier and prevent children’s needs escalating.
