Take part in the common core consultation
Because the work done by the children and young people's workforce is so important, the government created the common core of skills and knowledge - guidelines ensuring everyone has the basic skills they need to do their job.

The common core consultation
The common core is working well, but we want to make it even better. A refreshed version will be published in March 2010 and you can help shape it by taking part in the common core consultation. There is a 10-15 minute questionnaire where you share your views on how we can help you improve the lives of children and young people.
