    7. The core offer for parents/carers and families: to be in or accessed through all schools by 2010 The ECM:Change for Children programme is a shared national programme of system-wide reform designed to ensure that childrens services work better together and with parents and carers to help give children more opportunities and better support. It focuses on 5 outcomes: to be healthy, to stay safe, to enjoy and achieve, to make a positive contribution, to achieve economic wellbeing. This means bringing services together into single settings like childrens centres (birth-5) and schools. An extended school provides a range of services and activities to meet the needs of children, families and the wider community. There is no one solution by consulting with parents, schools will be able to develop the package that best meets the needs of the local community. Primary schools are not all expected to offer extended services on their own sites instead it will mean working with a range of local providers to enable children and families to have access to extended services. Secondary schools will be open from 8am 6pm all year around, offering a range of activities for young people. The core offer for delivery in all schools by 2010 (and by 2008 in at least half of primaries and a third of secondaries): High quality childcare provided on site or through local providers, with suitable transfer arrangements where appropriate, available 8am-6pm all year round Redriff Primary, Rotherhithe set up a breakfast club for children to play and meet their friends in a safe, calm environment and provided children with a regular, healthy breakfast.

A 6-week transition programme for Year 6 pupils, run in partnership with local secondary school, prepares parents for Key Stage 3 Swift and easy referral to a wide range of specialist support services eg speech therapy, child and adolescent mental health, behaviour support and (for young people) sexual health services Also at Eltham Green, Julie Unitt, School Nurse with Special Interest, provides a weekly session at the Community Centre for young people, a confidential drop-in service (MOT for kids) for pupils and a 10-week course in childcare for ASDAN curriculum pupils.

    12. extended.schools@continyou.org.uk www.continyou.org.uk Its not down to chance We have a good understanding of which children end up experiencing poor outcomes. Children growing up in poverty, experiencing poor schooling and parenting are more far more likely to end up offending or failing educationally. This graph shows how disadvantage builds up over a childs life and illustrates how critical early intervention is if we are to make a difference.We have a good understanding of which children end up experiencing poor outcomes.
