Where is the common ground between Children
and Young Peoples Services (CYPS) and
Museums, Libraries and Archives (MLAs)?
Section 10 Children Act 2004
The Children’s Plan calls on all children’s services
to be “more ambitious about improving outcomes
for children and young people”
Published in December 2007,
The Children’s Plan has set high
expectations for Children’s
Trusts to:
• deliver measurable
improvements for all children and
young people;
• have in place by 2010
consistent, high quality
arrangements to provide
identification; and
• provide early intervention for all
children and young people who
need additional help.
The Children’s Plan takes Every Child Matters
implementation forward to 2011 and beyond
Children’s Plan 2020 goals

at transition points.

The New Local Performance Framework
The Local Government White Paper Strong and Prosperous Communities, published in
October 2006 reforms the relationship between central Government and local government
and its partners through a new, more streamlined, local performance framework. There are
five key elements to the new framework:
• A National Indicator Set (NIS) of 198 outcome focussed indicators for local government
to deliver (alone or in partnership), replacing all existing indicator sets including PAF and
BVPIs,
• New, statutory Local Area Agreements (LAAs) to set out how local and national
priorities will be delivered. Each LAA will contain ’up to 35’ targets agreed with
Government, drawn from the NIS,
• A new risk-based monitoring system – Comprehensive Area Assessment (CAA) – to
replace existing inspection regime (CPA, JARs, APA) from 2009-10,
• Support and challenge for LAs and partners, established by the new National
Improvement & Efficiency Strategy (NIES),
• More funding freedoms – many grants paid on an un-ring fenced basis through Formula
Grant or the new Area Based Grant. There will be a strong presumption against ring
fenced grants.

•
The NI targets are grouped into seven blocks:– Stronger Communities (NI 1 to NI 14)
– Safer Communities (NI 15 to NI 49)
– Children and Young People (C&YP) (NI 50 to NI 118) –
organised by the ECM 5 key outcomes
– Adult health and wellbeing (NI 119 to NI 139)
– Tackling exclusion and promoting equality (NI 140 to NI
150)
– Local economy (NI 151 to NI 184)
– Environmental sustainability (NI 185 to NI 198)
•
Local authorities do however publish and organise the targets
to give priority to their own local initiatives or themes e.g.
child poverty. Targets may therefore be categorised under
these themes, as there is no requirement to use the blocks
above.

Commissioning Cycle
Children's Trusts and the Children and Young People's Plans
The local Children's Trust oversees the strategic coordination
and overarching strategy for improving the five Every Child
Matters outcomes for children, young people and their families
The Children’s Trust, through the engagement of partners, agrees
how the whole pattern of local services best fits together to
meet local need.
It will drive the process of identifying improvement priorities
for children and young people and feed these into the wider
Local Strategic Partnership which will negotiate
Local Area Agreement (LAA) priorities and improvement targets
with central Government (through Government Offices).

How can museums, libraries and archives contribute?
“Fasten your seat belts, the turbulence has
scarcely begun…
…we are facing an explosion
of societal diversity and complexity
hundreds of times greater than we now
experience or can yet imagine. If we think to
perpetuate the old ways, we should
try to recall the last time evolution
rang our number to
consent”
