Ed Balls Launches Plan For Children

Published: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 16:07:06

Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, Ed Balls today (11 December 2007) launched the ‘Children’s Plan’, a long term vision to improve schools and a step-change in the way parents and families are supported to deal with the new challenges faced by young people in the 21st century.

Building on a decade of reform and results, and responding directly to parents and young people’s concerns, the Children’s Plan:

• strengthens support for all families including during the formative early years of their children’s lives;

• takes the next steps in achieving world class schools;

• seeks a step-change in parents involvement in their child’s learning;

• helps to make sure that young people have exciting things to do outside school, and more places for children to play.
