Leadership and management

The authority welcomes and gives careful consideration to the views of stakeholders, such as headteachers, parents, children and young people and residents to reinforce its understanding of people’s views about the quality of its work and, in particular, to tailor services for the future. A good example is the way in which the authority is very active in seeking the views of pupils and including them in decisions. The Chief Executive, senior officers and elected members take pride in, and encourage, the contributions of the children and young people of Ceredigion and, as a result, they influence the authority’s strategic direction in specific aspects, such as post-16 education and the Welsh in Education Strategic Plan. Members of the Youth Council demonstrate a high level of understanding of what is going on within the education services in Ceredigion. They are confident when exemplifying how their comments have influenced the improvement of services.
