Westbrook Children's Home rated 'Outstanding'
 Westbrook Children’s home was recently inspected by Ofsted to measure the effectiveness of their short-break service offered to up to six children at a time.
The inspection, which took place earlier this year, graded the overall experiences and progress of children and young people as 'Outstanding'.
The inspection considered how well children and young people are helped and protected as well as the effectiveness of leaders and managers.
Ofsted deemed that the children’s home provides highly effective services that consistently exceed the standards of 'good'. The actions contribute to significantly improved outcomes and positive experiences for children and young people who need help, protection and care.
