Recommended Means of Verification
Measuring this indicator using the Quality of Services tool.
To calculate the indicator's value, divide the number of supported informal child protection service providers whose score on the Quality of Services measurement tool increases compared to the initial assessment total by the total number of supported informal child protection service providers assessed. Multiply the result by 100 to convert it to a percentage.
The QoS tool allows input of a score from 1 to 4 against an indicator for 10 quality standards:
1 = Indicator is not achieved: There is no evidence that any efforts have been made to achieve the monitoring indicator.
2 = Indicator is partially achieved: Some efforts to achieve the monitoring indicator are observed, although they are inconsistent. Some additional work is required to ensure consistency.
3 = Indicator is achieved: There is consistent evidence that the monitoring indicator has been successfully reached in the service/service provider.
4 = Indicator is exceeded: There is direct and consistent evidence that the indicator has been achieved. In addition, there is evidence that a variety of methods are used to go beyond the minimum expectation and ensure an exceptionally high/excellent level of quality during implementation.
NA = Indicator is not relevant for the service being assessed.
