Description

Despite recent improvements, a council-run childrens home in Oldham has been rated requires improvement by Ofsted. The home, caring for youngsters with social and emotional challenges, faces ongoing safety concerns due to a poor living environment and exhausted staff. While the home excels in supporting childrens hobbies and safeguarding efforts, staffing issues and high turnover have led to inconsistent care. However, providers are implementing changes, including repairs, additional manager support, and a plan for stability, aiming to create a more welcoming environment for the children.
