A Unique Child: Inclusion - As a result

A project involving two Kirklees schools has proved the value of involving local stakeholders in determining strategies for improving the learning of disadvantaged children.

In the continued drive to improve the achievement of vulnerable groups in the EYFS, the Early Years Consultancy Team in Kirklees initiated a project based around improving outcomes for young children using the Outcomes Based Accountability (OBA) Model. This approach provided a useful framework in helping the schools to plan effective interventions and to establish whether they are making a difference to their children and families.

The OBA model provided a pathway for multi-agency partnerships and individual organisations to improve outcomes for all children, particularly the most vulnerable, by identifying barriers to children's learning and then determining which strategies might best be employed to improve scores in the Early Years Foundation Stage Profile (EYFSP).
