Background

We need further evidence to ensure that we have people across all our sectors with the best possible knowledge, skills, and experience, and who are motivated, inspired and enabled to deliver our Opportunity Mission. This includes ensuring we understand how and when specialists are best deployed, and supporting all of our workforces to use the best available evidence in their work. (For brevity, please read all references to children as encompassing both children and young people where appropriate).
