We have submitted a bid to fund an exciting
pilot project and been successful – this report is a request
to accept the funding on behalf of the council.
Children and Young People’s service in conjunction with Data
and Intelligence and Technology and Change would like to pilot a
project looking at how azure analytics can be used to enhance the
services we offer.
The Executive Member for Children and Young
People’s Service in consultation with the Corporate Director
for Children and Young People’s Service, Corporate Director,
Strategic Resources and the Assistant Chief Executive (Legal and
Democratic Services) authorises the Corporate Director Strategic
Resources to accept the £642,657 grant funding from the
Department for Education for delivery of this digital and data

opportunity to pilot using new technologies in a totally different
way.
By doing this we can position ourselves as sector leaders and can
be at the forefront of shaping developments in this space

no cost to the authority.
