Every Child Matters - a focus on achieving five outcomes that matter most to children


ECM - Context

• Children falling down gaps between services with catastrophic results for some:• Victoria Climbié• Lord Laming report on Victoria Climbié January 2003

• Systemic disadvantage for many: • School standards – too variable ; behaviour & attendance problematic & support beyond the classroom sporadic• Promising but fragmented programmes – Sure Start; Extended Schools; Children’s Fund; Connexions• Inadequate information sharing, multiple assessments, silo based working with capacity and recruitment problems• Incoherent planning, commissioning, accountability – nationally and locally

• Every Child Matters Green Paper and response to Laming report September 2003
