Children and Young People. For children under 16 years of age, the Mental Capacity Act does not apply. Instead, a child needs to be assessed whether they have enough understanding to make up their own mind about the benefits and risks – this is termed Xxxxxxx competence. Generally, in these circumstances agreement will be sought from their parents. Once children reach the age of 16, they are presumed in law to be competent. However, if they do not have the capacity to agree, the Mental Capacity Act applies.

Most of the children and young people living in the borough are safe, healthy, achieving well at school, living in good family environments and have a positive future ahead of them.

Through the Local Area Agreement we will prioritise our activities to focus on delivering outcomes specifically related to the following groups: • Pre-school aged children • Looked after children • 14-19 year olds Across all age groups we will be looking at ways in which we can improve the self- esteem of children and young people. We arrived at our priorities in a number of ways: • An audit of need • Service review • Consultation with children, their families and carers Ofsted inspection judgements (based on information from April 2005 to the present) indicate that there is a great deal of good provision.

It is therefore important to us that we ensure that all provision reaches the same high standards of quality care.
