How the Council Works

The Council provides a variety of public services to the residents of Rotherham.

Our priorities for the years ahead are set out in the Council’s  Corporate Plan 2005 – 2011.

The Council’s  performance is measured regularly, both by carrying out Best Value Reviews, and by the annual Comprehensive Performance Assessment (CPA) carried out by the Audit Commission.

The Government’s  Beacon Scheme also recognises good practice by local authorities, with the aim of improving services for local people.
