Share Your Good Practice in Young People's Services

30 November 2011

C4EO has been commissioned by the Children’s Improvement Board (CIB) to identify innovative examples of emerging local practice in relation to youth services, to share with the sector. The context for this call for local practice examples is the fast moving and changing landscape of young people’s services, including youth service provision. The CIB wishes to identify best practice in relation to the systematic sharing of thinking and experience with others. It is particularly keen to identify good work being led, supported or commissioned by Local Authorities, in relation to:

  • Reducing the proportion of young people not in education, training or employment (NEET) and increasing participation in education and training, particularly in preparation for the raising of the participation age.
  • Transforming youth services and developing newer and more modern approaches to deliver and secure improved and positive outcomes for young people.
  • Securing local engagement in the commissioning and delivery of services, particularly as a contribution to approaches to increase citizen participation.
  • Developing alternative funding approaches to maintain services in times of financial challenge.
