Hampshire County Youth Service Plan 2005/06
Managing, supporting and promoting effective youth work
Youth work engages young people by using a variety of informal learning opportunities through which they can grow and develop as empowered individuals. For youth work to be effective, high quality opportunities need to be developed and well planned.
The youth work plan enables everyone in youth work to build on existing provision and develop quality learning opportunities for young people in Hampshire
What is the context in which we operate?
Young people's issues are one of the key issues for the County Council and one of the cabinet priorities. The Government have initiated a Transforming Youth Work programme to improve services. The service is part of the Children and Families Branch of the Education Department.
What are we trying to achieve?
_ The personal and social development of young people
_ Promoting learning and achievement through educational group work
_ Engaging young people by using a variety of informal learning opportunities through which they can grow as empowered individuals
Where are we now?
The youth service is a universal service responding positively to the needs of young people and stakeholders, within available resources. The service allocates resources effectively on the basis of need and has a strong tradition of working partnership with a range of agencies and organisations to maximise opportunities. The service contributes towards the Government targets and performs well given the current resource base.
What are the gaps that we must bridge?
1. Meeting national targets
2. Working towards national targets of reach, participation enabling young people to gain recorded and accredited outcomes
3. Improving information and data collection
4. Increasing the level of experienced staff
5. Developing and improving strategic partnerships
How will we go about it?
The youth service will maintain its proactive role as a preventative service and will continue to manage, promote and support effective youth work. Resources will be targeted at work with young people to raise their ability to make informed decision, remove barriers and increase their aspirations. It will seek to engage those at risk of exclusion from school, not engaging in learning or on the fringe of criminal activity.
What is our capacity to deliver?
The youth service works flexibly with the resources it has available. To maximise the impact and effectiveness of youth work in relation to identified needs and stakeholder expectations the Service has set priorities and targets so resources are tightly yet imaginatively managed.

Workforce planning View Workforce Plan
Staffing: the current workforce is made up of:
_ 7 Youth service management team
_ 2 Youth Officers
_ 9 Development youth workers
_ 72 Full-time youth workers - 66% nationally qualified
_ 2.73 Youth offending team
_ 82.18 Full-time equivalent part-time youth workers - 30% qualified

_ 0.4 Storekeepers
_ 97 Volunteers
Structure View Structure Chart
A central management team supports:
_ a development and training team
_ 11 district youth work delivery teams coterminous with district councils
_ a resource team.
Changes will be made in line with the demands made on the Service in line with the Education Department's response to Every Child Matters. The youth service is continually seeking external funding and opportunities to work in partnership with other agencies. Responding to these opportunities results in changes in staffing requirements which cannot be predicted accurately.
Staff roles and responsibilities: these have been reviewed by the pay and benefits process and the outcomes will be implemented. All youth work staff roles will be assessed using a similar process to implement the changes agreed by the Joint Negotiating Committee (JNC).
Staff training:
The service supports a professional development programme to ensure:
_ Each member of staff understands what his or her job involves
_ Each person is trained to perform their current job to the required standards
_ Staff are prepared and equipped for opportunities created by changes in the Youth service and/or Hampshire County Council
_ Each individual is enabled to develop his or her potential, both personally and professionally
_ Resources are made available for staff development activities
_ Staff engage in selected development activities which support the implementation of the youth service strategic plan, the County Council's Corporate Strategy and Government legislation.
Section 2 - What is the context in which we operate?
Context: the Government has recognised the value of youth work through initiating the Transforming Youth Work Programme to raise standards, set targets and improve funding levels of youth services. The profile of the youth service has increased considerably and its work is valued by a range of stakeholders and providers. As a result of a number of significant changes the service is a quality provider of effective learning and developmental opportunities for young people.
Opportunities: there are a number of exciting external factors, which the Youth service is well place to respond effectively, these include:
_ Green paper proposals autumn 2004 `The Youth Offer'. The three main themes currently under consideration places to go, universal information and advice and targeted support for those with additional need are clearly linked to current work
_ The changes in the delivery of the Connexions Service
_ Proposals being developed to implement Every Child Matters and the opportunity for greater integration with other services
_ Changes in the approach to behaviour support
_ Supporting other targets for young people eg Public Service Agreement targets
_ External funding opportunities
Threats include:
_ Limited resources and therefore the lack of flexibility to respond quickly and effectively to new situations
_ Unrealistic expectations, competing demands
_ Loss of key experienced staff
_ Lack of continuity due to short-term funded work
Strategic analysis
Financial opportunities and restrictions:
_ the youth service receives 8.7% of the LEA budget. Along with Hampshire's low national position for Education funding through FSS, the Youth Service is in the lower quartile of funding when compared to other authorities. This places Hampshire 108 out of 123 local authorities for the most recently available data (2002/2003) which will shortly be updated.
_ the service has been successful in raising funding from external sources. Currently raising £1.1m from 21 different sources, which equates to 25% of the delegated youth service budget. Much external funding is short term and sometimes deflects from service priorities, however its loss would have a significant impact on delivery
_ the service has over 90 projects working in partnership with a range of agencies and organisations, which enables youth work to be extended through the joint use of resources
Relevant legislation
The 1944 Education Act set the foundation of Local Education Authority's responsibility for youth service provision and reinforced in the 1996 Education Act section 508 which states LEAs have a duty to secure the provision of youth service facilities.
Local and national initiatives
_ The government has embarked on improving youth services through the transforming youth work agenda to improve and set standards for quality youth work
_ Forthcoming Green Paper on youth support
_ Hampshire compact with the voluntary sector and developing their capacity
_ Focusing the impact of youth work through targeted youth work
_ Improving the opportunities for the voice of young people to be heard and the implementation of Hear by Right standards
_ Responding to the changes required by the County Council in response to Every Child Matters, Children's Trusts, behaviour support and extended schools
_ Improving performance through quality assurance programme
Demographic trends:
_ The 2001 census identified: 107,264 young people in the 13-19 age group; 50,072 in the 10-12 age group; 75,269 in the 20-25 age group. By 2011 the target age group is expected to increase by 3% to 110,477
_ Ethnic origin: 97.8% white; other ethnic origin 2.2%. The proportion of ethnic minority groups is uniformly low across the county, with only Rushmoor having more than 4% from all other backgrounds
District demography is taken into account in the way the youth service budget is deployed through a fair funding formula, which bases the allocation on 70% youth population and 30% social factors, including exclusions from school, youth crime and population density.
Particular note needs to be taken of the 20 most deprived wards in Hampshire listed below:

The only rural ward to appear in the above list is Netley Marsh. This is due to the number of residents in Tatchbury Mount Hospital receiving severe disability allowance. Rural deprivation is hidden in smaller pockets of dispersed rural communities. Issues for young people in rural communities include isolation, access to transport and appropriate services.
Staffing profiles
The following areas need to be addressed:
_ the number and level of qualified youth workers needs to be increased with 60% of staff qualified for their roles
_ the recruitment, retention and training of part-time workers needs to be improved as the turnover of part-time staff is high and considerable investment is required for staff to reach qualified status.
_ training in management and strategic development
_ the current part-time vacancy level is 25% an agreed optimum level needs to be determined for both financial and service planning
Stakeholder views
Internal stakeholders include: Elected Members; Education Department branches; schools; other County Council Departments; young people
External stakeholders include: Voluntary and community groups; South Central Connexions; District and Parish Councils; Parents and Carers; Youth Offending Team; Primary Care Trusts; Government Office of the South East; Colleges; Police
The service works well with a range of stakeholders, but will increasingly need to balance the demands made by the education department to respond to the improving schools agenda and Every Child Matters with Members and District Councils views for more community based provision, whilst ensuring the views young people are at the centre of developments.
The service cannot be all things to all young people and stakeholders. Work will be prioritised with the following stakeholders:
_ Connexions
_ District Councils:
o LSPs
o Community safety partnerships
_ County Council Members
_ Schools
Challenges
The challenges facing the service are:
_ balancing the competing demands of stakeholders with those of young people and the need to focus work
_ maintaining a broad based service within a limited resource base
_ moving existing provision from one community to another may be unpopular with some stakeholders
_ reviewing how resources are allocated including the use of buildings based on a rigorous needs analysis
_ working in new and creative ways with a range of stakeholders
_ building an experienced and qualified workforce
_ rigorous and robust statistical data.

Section 4 - Service Review
In order to ensure youth work is effective, of high quality and responds to the changing needs and issues of young people and expectations of stakeholders the service is in a continual process of change, growth and development.
The significant elements of service review are:
¬ The planning process: this ensures future service developments respond to Government, County Council and local agenda. Progress is built on the evaluation of previous work
¬ Reporting structure: a robust reporting and recording structure linked to performance development and review ensures necessary changes are identified early and the service is effective in delivery and uses resources efficiently
¬ Quality assurance: the policy links qualitative and quantitative data through ongoing monitoring and an eighteen month cycle of inspection to ensure high quality learning outcomes for young people
¬ Annual return to NYA: the data return provides the basis of benchmarking and performance against other authorities
¬ Best value performance indicator 33: this currently identifies the County Council's expenditure on the youth service and the amount of money allocated within the budget line Section 52. It is expected to change and measure the performance of youth services against targets set for reach, contact, recorded and accredited outcomes for young people.
The County Youth Officer and the youth service management team take responsibility for service review, responding to issues and problems as they arise and scrutinising performance.
