One-Eighty Annual Report 2014-2015 01 One-Eighty One-Eighty Annual Report 2014-2015 Annual Report 2014-2015 02 03 The strategies you have developed will be really helpful for the future. You have been really good at working together with other professionals. Julie Fox Team, City) (Social Worker, Children’s Disability One-Eighty have a holistic and highly skilled portfolio to therapeutically support our most vulnerable young people. Elsa Torres (Deputy Head, Gillotts School) Directors Report Johnny Latham and Susie Besant One-Eighty is a psychology focused behaviour support charity for vulnerable children and young people (aged 4-16) and their families. Through research and intensive therapeutic family and community provisions, we reintegrate young people back into education, by working on the thoughts and behaviours that hinder learning. Our Vision Where every child can enjoy a positive and flourishing relationship with education. This year, 2014/15 has been a year of focused growth, success and pride. In our continual search for more holistic ways of working we have noticed two key gaps in the provision offered to parents and young people. Firstly, we have expanded our provision for parents to include CBT sessions. These sessions allow parents to develop a greater understanding of their children’s behaviours as well as how thoughts and feelings within a family interact to cause distress. Secondly, over the last few years we noticed a dip in academic and behavioural success during the summer months, as a result of the school break and a change of routine. So this year we piloted our fun and educational Summer Project, which was a resounding success. It continues to be a wonderful gift to see that those young people and families who have struggled to engage with other services, have been able to effectively work with One-Eighty. Half-way through the year one of the Directors, Johnny Latham, was awarded the Beck Scholarship Award for OneEighty’s work using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy within families. As a result of many agencies and local authorities seeing these incredible achievements, Hounslow Virtual School team asked us to work in their locality with their Looked After Children. Our successes in Oxfordshire were replicated, demonstrating that our model is not location specific but has the capacity to be taken wherever there is need. What wasn’t expected was the support we would get from our local universities; Oxford University, Oxford Brookes University and Reading University, in researching alongside us methods of facilitating behaviour change, and this will continue into this coming year. A major priority this year, on top of direct projects with families, was to make sure OneEighty’s knowledge and experience could be disseminated to teams and schools that may not easily be able to access One-Eighty’s services. As a result, we trained 36 professionals in delivering One-Eighty’s prevention resource ‘Raise The BAR’ and we now provide clinical supervision to 9 individuals. In March 2015, we celebrated our 5th year of service by hosting a 1920’s Casino Night. Over 100 supporters attended and we heard from real families who had been impacted by the work we do. We are a team dedicated to seeing children and young people turn their lives around and it is moments like this that remind us that what we do is so worthwhile and effective. Looking forward, we plan to develop structures for growth – we’re extending our boarders to include parts of Buckinghamshire, and we’re continuing to create a sustainability plan for the new work in West London. We’re moving into a new premises to begin a social enterprise office sharing scheme, and we’re also taking on new Occupational Therapy students, to add to existing skills in the team. Thank you so much to all the staff, volunteers, supporters and donors that make it all possible. Chair of Trustees Report Alastair Colin-Jones I have recently graduated after doing a psychology degree and I wanted to gain more experience working with young people. I read about One-Eighty and it looked like something that I wanted to be involved in. I have really enjoyed volunteering at One-Eighty so far, working with young people individually and in groups. I have got a lot out of working with the young people, and I hope it has made a difference to them too! It has been really nice to be part of the One-Eighty team, I would recommend volunteering here to anyone! Rosie Davies (Psychology Graduate, University of Oxford) Our Mission One-Eighty exists to connect vulnerable Children and Young People (aged 4-16) with a positive learning experience through working on patterns of thinking behaviours and emotions that hinder learning. As ever, it is the hard work and dedication of the One-Eighty Team and our volunteers that drive the work forward. Indeed, in a year where not only the volume of our work has increased but also the level of complexity it is difficult to sufficiently communicate the dedication and ingenuity shown by staff each day in meeting these challenges. As the schools and individuals One-Eighty work with will testify, the service that this team provides is outstanding. The content of this year’s Annual Report is only a snapshot of the achievements and milestones One-Eighty has reached, but it is certainly an inspiring summary. Behind the scenes, the Board and Staff have had the complex and exacting, but truly exciting task of thinking through One-Eighty’s strategic growth over the next 3 years. Some of the highlights from our Development Plan include planning for a new One-Eighty office in another location; investing in our current staff and further deepening our expertise; and of course expanding our reach to support more vulnerable young people who may otherwise slip through the net. In producing the now released Three Year Development Plan, we have had the joy of celebrating together just how far we have come as an organisation. However, we are of course no longer looking back, there is simply too much to look forward to! So while it has been a remarkable journey we believe that three years on from now our success and impact will again surpass our present expectations. One-Eighty is flexible which allows support to be tailored to each young person. Mentors are patient and positive and allow students to make use of the support at their own pace. Karen Dix (Head of House, Oxford Spires Academy) One-Eighty One-Eighty Annual Report 2014-2015 Annual Report 2014-2015 04 05 What We Do Our Statistics Last year One-Eighty reached Primary Secondary Adults Kick Start - At the start of the day Kick Start helps children who are restless / hyperactive to understand their body and find ways to relax and focus so they do not fall behind in their learning. It also gives their parents ideas on how to prepare their children the night before and when they wake up. Innerviews - One-Eighty offers schools examples of adults who have had difficult childhoods, but who have now turned their lives around. In person they reflect with the young people about what they wish they could have done earlier in their lives. Innerviews also hosts a self-help website with ideas and advice for any young person who wants to start to turn their own life around. One Seed Leaflets - A simple to read leaflet about how parents can influence their child’s behaviour, both positively and negatively, and some ideas of how to build a positive relationship with their child. Make Me Smile - Sometimes young people feel that mental health problems in their family are their fault. Make Me Smile explains mental health to Primary School children in an easy and understandable way, whilst the children make a fun craft face that they can use to explain what they have learnt to their friends and family. 1-to-1 Intensive Interventions One-Eighty, over 7+ weeks, looks at the causes of why a child is behaving as they do, and develops strategies that the young people, parents and school staff can use to turn their behaviour around. The child spends between 8 - 20 hours each week with 2 or 3 OneEighty staff, who work alongside the child and family to make sure the child is implementing the strategies; and that their behaviour is changing. To make a referral, you can contact us using the details on the back of this report or complete an online referral form at: www.one-eighty.org.uk/ for-professionals/#contact BE (Behavioural Education) - This is a group work project run as a follow up to our Innerviews project that allows young people to reflect upon the issues raised and discuss them in more depth. BE uses positive peer pressure as a tool to re-engage those who would otherwise disengage from school. 1-to-1 Advanced Intensive Intervention One-Eighty, over 7+ weeks, looks at the causes of why a child is behaving as they do, as well as what services have already been involved (and what has already been tried), in order to create a bespoke engagement plan for those who are either on the edge of school exclusion due to behaviour, or those who are refusing to engage in education positively. One-Eighty works 1-to-1 with each child until they are ready to be re-introduced into educational settings. Assessment & Reporting • Weekly multi-agency reports • Psychological strategising • CAF information collection Advanced Parenting - Some parents struggle to act as a positive role model for their child as a result of their mental illness (i.e. depression or anxiety). For this type of parent, parenting courses have very little effect. Therefore, One-Eighty offers them 1-to-1 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy support, whilst evaluating the positive impacts this has on their child(ren). Training ‘Inside I’m Hurting’ - A training course for any adult or professional wanting a basic psychological understanding of how upbringing and other environmental factors can impact the behaviour of children and young people as they get older. Raise The BAR (Behaviour, Attitude, Respect) - Training in identifying early indicators for young people who may show behaviour problems in the near future, and a resource booklet with ideas for teachers who want to respond with early intervention in their own school settings. 681 people with support! 36 27 23 560 9 9 9 8 Training Secondary 1 to 1 Kick Start (primary) Innerviews (secondary) Intensive parenting support Supervision for teams Primary 1 to 1 Summer project Issues impacting children/young people accessing the 1-to-1 Intensive Service 24% Living away from home/absconding 47% Mental health problems Behavioural problems 53% (not related to difficult environmental circumstances) 76% Emotional vulnerability 47% Low attainment in relation to ability 61% Poor school attendance/truancy 37% Failing to meet developmental milestones 47% 8% Known neglect or abuse Victim of crime / sexual exploitation 32% Known involvement in crime or likely risk of offending 45% 5% Experienced/ witnessed domestic violence of young people working with One-Eighty on a 1 to 1 basis saw success in 3 or more of their targets.

Nick Field (Former Assistant SENCo, Total resources expended Net incoming/(outgoing) resources before transfers Cheney School) Total funds carried forward 15 One-Eighty Annual Report 2014-2015 08 I think all services should be trying to use One-Eighty. Not only is it a great service to help and support young people achieve … it can prevent young people having to access more formal services such as CAMHS. Lilli Kendrick (Social Worker, LAC & Leaving Care Team, South) A very professional response to a child with obvious high levels of need. Practitioners offered a skill set which reflects the diverse and complex needs that children in mainstream schools often face. Communication was seamless and enabled the team around the young person to keep up to date with things despite being very busy. Verity Banbury (SENCo) & Claire Main (Class teacher, The Blake CE Primary School, Witney) The work One-Eighty have done with this young person has made a significant and lasting impact. Both parents and the young person are positive about the intervention and are hoping for further interventions from One-Eighty in the future. From my point of view, seeing lasting, positive changes for the young person is evidence of the interventions effectiveness. Receiving the weekly reports and communication from One-Eighty for professionals was also a really helpful and useful part of the service offered.
