Good morning
In “Building a Brighter Future: Early Years and Childcare Plan” (2013) Welsh Government made a commitment to develop and consult on an Early Years Outcomes Framework.
The development of an outcomes framework will help Welsh Government to understand how great an impact our early years policies and programmes are having on children’s lives. It will help to identify where further improvement is needed and where we need to prioritise in the short, medium and long term.
To date the framework has been developed through the Early Years Partnership Board. We also held stakeholder workshops across Wales to test an earlier version of the framework. All feedback has been taken into account and the updated, proposed framework is now open to public consultation.
In order for the outcomes framework to be a success everyone that works across the early years, childcare and play sector should feel ownership of the proposed outcomes. It should help individuals across the sector to understand the contribution they make to improving these outcomes. To help ensure this we would really welcome your views and encourage you to review the consultation and return a response. It can be found at the following link:
The closing date for responses is 15 January 2015.
