Sure Start Children's Centres - the impact

The report by the DCSF gives a summary of the research undertaken into the impact the Sure Start (later named Children's Centres) have and what lessons have been learnt. Drawing on the National Evaluation of Sure Start (NESS) research as well as ofsted and international research. A good read for anyone interested in Early Years!

The report is spilt into assessing the impact on:
- good outcomes for children
- reaching excluded and disadvantaged groups (BME, SEN-D)
- support for parents (including fathers)
- joined up working & partnership
- health
- governance, leadership, consultation
- workforce
