The Committee consider a report
of the Strategic Director of Children’s Services which set
out a proposal to develop a Belonging Framework and use this to
drive change.
 
The Education, Children and
Families Policy Committee:
 
1.   
Agreed that Sheffield City Council would develop a
Belonging Framework in coproduction with children and young people,
families and stakeholders.
2.   
Noted the intention of the Belonging Framework to
provide an overarching vision to drive change – so that
everything done would be focused on deepening children and young
people’s sense of belonging.
3.   
Noted the engagement planned with children and young
people to inform the development of the framework.
4.   
Noted that the development of the framework would be
an iterative process as the views of children and young people were
gained in ways which worked best for them, and that the framework
and next steps would be reviewed and refined based on
this.
5.   
Noted the intention for an ongoing conversation with
the Committee about belonging, including a further draft to be
presented at Committee in Spring 2024.
