Frankland inspection report 2020
Report for Frankland Prison
Summary
The prison had a good understanding of prisoner risk and need, but we identified some weaknesses in the prison’s approach to offender management and sentence planning. Staff had high caseloads and the approach to case management was too often poorly coordinated. That said, most prisoners had an up-to-date assessment (OASys) and most were of good quality. We found public protection arrangements to be robust. The prison had enough offending behaviour interventions to meet most need, augmented by some very good psychology-led one-to-one work. The offender personality disorder pathway worked as well as other psychological approaches delivered on the Westgate units, which were recognised as centres of excellence.
