  • domains 2 and 3 look at the quality of:
    • post-court supervision
    • out-of-court disposals

Domain 1: organisational delivery

The inspectors looked at:

  • governance and leadership
  • staff
  • partnerships and services
  • information
  • facilities

Domains 2 and 3: court and out-of-court disposals

Inspectors evaluated if the arrangements in place sufficiently analyse how to support children’s desistance from offending (prevention, reduction and ceasing of), keep children and others safe in the following areas:

  • planning
  • implementation and delivery
  • review 
  • resettlement from custody
  • access to appropriate services to support desistance, safety and wellbeing and risk of harm
