2020 Children and Young People's Workforce Strategy

This publication sets out a vision for 2020 in which everyone who works with children and young people is: ambitious for every child and young person, excellent in their practice, committed to partnership and integrated working, and respected and valued as professionals.

The Government’s ambition is that all children and young people should achieve their full potential across all the Every Child Matters outcomes: staying safe; being healthy; enjoying and achieving; making a positive contribution and achieving economic wellbeing. The quality and capacity of the children and young people’s workforce are critical to making a reality of those ambitions.
