Built around what inspectors look for
Scripta Check reads a record against the six frameworks a children's home in England works to and is inspected against, and tells you what to change and how soon.
The six frameworks
The Children's Homes (England) Regulations 2015
The legal duties on every registered children's home, including what must be recorded, by whom, and how records are kept.
The Quality Standards
The nine standards for children's experiences and progress, set out in the Regulations, from education and health to protection and leadership.
The SCCIF
Ofsted's Social Care Common Inspection Framework, which sets out how a children's home is judged at inspection.
Working Together to Safeguard Children
The statutory guidance on keeping children safe. Scripta Check uses it to look for worries passed on the same day, referrals made straight away and the child's own words.
Reducing restraint and restrictive intervention
DfE guidance that covers children's homes. Scripta Check uses it to look for why restraint was needed, how the child was kept safe during it, support afterwards and learning from patterns.
The Care Planning Regulations 2010
The Care Planning, Placement and Case Review (England) Regulations 2010. Scripta Check uses them for placement plans, delegated authority, review reports and social worker visits.
