Visuals. Data. Insights. Things that seem to go hand in hand. But producing these things are hard. Power BI seems to be used more and more in #localgov. Anyone got experience?

Growing coalition of organisations talking about the importance of data to appropriately influence strategic and operational decisions in Children's Services. Great report by our friends in @instituteforgov #betterdatainCS #FrontDoorData

Our work at Social Finance and Cheshire West and Chester, tied together important social care and educational data to drive new insights about school exclusions: We found girls are 50% more likely to be informally excluded compared to boys @socfinuk bit.ly/2CBdS15

The research showed that three quarters of formal exclusions, both permanent and fixed-term, involved boys. In the case of “early exits” however, which is one of the so-called informal exclusion routes, the rate among boys was just over 4% while among girls it was just under 6%.
Inviting Children's Services leaders and experts to share, comment and challenge our data discovery findings working with four LA partners Front Door services!
