Inspection of Youth Offending Programme
The Inspection of Youth Offending programme, that will replace current arrangements in April 2009, will comprise a Core Case Inspection (CCI) and a thematic programme. Both will be led by HMI Probation.
The inspection findings from the CCI will feed into the wider annual Comprehensive Area Assessment (CAA) process that will replace the current Joint Area Review Arrangements. For this reason the Inspection of Youth Offending programme will report more quick rather than a five year cycle) assessing the quality of work with children and young people who offend, with particular focus on Risk of Harm to others and safeguarding of children.
The Chief Inspector's speech (PowerPoint 1.81mb) at 19 March at Manchester provides further information on this.
