WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL Report by Chief Officer – Education Committee: Educational Services Committee 20 March 2024 Subject: Education Delivery Plan 2023/24 – Mid-year Progress 1 Purpose 1.1 This report sets out the mid-year progress of the Education Delivery Plan 2023/24. 2 Recommendations 2.1 It is recommended that Committee notes the progress achieved. 3 Background 3.1 In line with the Strategic Planning & Performance Framework, each Chief Officer develops an annual Delivery Plan which sets out actions to help deliver the Strategic Plan and address the performance challenges and service priorities identified in the planning process. The Plan also provides an overview of services and resources, including employees and budgets, sets out the performance indicators (PIs) for monitoring progress and considers the relevant risks. 3.2 The Education Delivery Plan 2023/24 was presented to Educational Services Committee on 21 June 2023 with a commitment to report mid-year progress and year-end progress in March 2024 and late 2024 respectively. 3.3 In September 2023, the Supply, Distribution and Property strategic area was disbanded and the services and teams realigned to the remaining seven strategic areas. Education now incorporates the Partnership Officer with oversight of West Dunbartonshire Leisure Trust. This change is reflected in the Education Delivery Plan for 2023/24 and in this mid-year progress report. 4 Main Issues 4.1 Full details of mid-year performance are set out in Appendix 1. 4.2 0 of the 9 actions have been completed, 9 are progressing as planned and on- track for completion by the end of the academic year.

4.3 Three of the 30 PIs are monitored quarterly, with Q1 and Q2 data available for all 3. Of those, all 3 met targets in both quarters.

It is essential that remedial action is taken to ensure strategic delivery plans achieve the commitments detailed and approved. 8 Equalities Impact Assessment 8.1 Screening and impact assessments will be carried out on specific activities as required. 9 Consultation 9.1 The delivery plans were developed through consultation with officers from the strategic service areas. 10 Strategic Assessment 10.1 The delivery plans set out actions to support the successful delivery of the strategic priorities and objectives of the Council.
