Report CEF22058

The report set out the Children, Education and Families Risk Register update for Quarter 1 of the 2022/23 financial year.

The Children, Education and Families Risk Register comprised 11 risks identified across the Children, Education and Families Portfolio. Of these risks, one was rated as ‘red’ which comprised Risk 1: Failure to Deliver Children’s Service Financial Strategy and management action to mitigate this risk was being taken.  In considering the Risk Register, the Chairman noted that Risk 6: SEND Transport was now rated as ‘Amber’ which reflected the extensive work undertaken to improve service provision and address cost pressures.  Independent travel training had been completed with a small number of young people during the Summer 2022 break with optimised transport routes recommissioned at the start of the 2022/23 academic year.  The Chairman queried the numbering reference given to removed risks and this would be clarified following the meeting.

RESOLVED: That the current Children, Education and Families Risk Register and the existing controls in place to mitigate the risks be noted.
