Our vision
Our overarching ambition is for Stockport to be the best place to live happy and healthy lives. We want to create a place where anything is possible, a place that everyone right across the borough can be proud of.
Key to achieving this ambition is our vision for children and families:
“Our vision is for all children and young people with SEND to have the best start in life. We want all children and young people to be happy, prepared for adulthood and able to achieve their goals. We want families to feel supported, confident, resilient and connected to their community.”
Outcomes framework
To support our vision, we've co-designed 7 'I statements' with parents, carers and young people in collaboration with the Council for Disabled Children. These 7 statements are also known as our outcomes framework. The statements underpin our work across all areas so we can ensure the best possible outcomes for children and young people.
The 7 statements are:
- I am confident and able to achieve my goals
- My voice is heard and acted upon
- I enjoy good health and wellbeing
- I feel safe
- I feel part of my local community
- I am happy and have people I can trust
- The people who love me and care for me are enabled to do this
