The Children and Young People Department's workforce strategy is critical to improving the lives of children and young people by ensuring that:
- All children and young people's organisations and services work together so that the child or young person is at the centre of all services
- People working with children and young people are competent, confident and safe to do so
- People aspire to be part of this workforce and want to remain part of it, are able to develop their skills and build satisfying and rewarding careers
- Parents, carers, children and young people trust and respect people working with them
Latest update
Having established the strategy, this year’s implementation plan is about developing partnership working through the development of childrens’ centres, locality hubs, integrated working, information sharing and CAF (Common Assessment Framework).
An exciting South Gloucestershire partnership venture is a proposed Children and Young People Partnership Website which will enable staff in partner organisations to communicate across organisational boundaries, sharing good practice and expertise. Further updates on progress will be provided soon.
