By delivering this priority we will create a city where our residents get the best possible start in life, experience good health, and age well, in a city that embraces diversity, protects the most vulnerable, and values its residents and communities.

We have amended the One Coventry Plan following your feedback on this priority by:

  • Being clearer in our commitment to tackling violence and abuse in all forms

  • Strengthened our intent to narrow and close the gap in education performance measures for vulnerable groups at each phase.

    Coventry City Council’s children's services have been rated as "good" following its latest inspection. The grading comes after an intensive three-week inspection involving nine inspectors and showed a marked improvement since the last inspection five years ago when services were described as ‘requires improvement to be good’. But the inspection found that the Council services supporting some of the most vulnerable in the city had “improved in all areas” with all areas rated as “good.”
