What's the agenda?

Sure Start and Children‘s Centres are now progressing within the local authority arena – so what impacts have been achieved, and are the services providing good value for money? How do local authorities carry forward the unique ethos and dedicated parent support? What are the opportunities for extending the role of Children‘s Centres into tackling worklessness and local fuel poverty? How can CCs access support to secure additional funding? And at a strategic level, what is current best practice in implementing the Common Assessment Framework? Is there a reliable and up-to-date audit of local children and family services available?
