Do you play a key role in your local Children’s Trust and are you looking to build your capacity and influence with stakeholders in this agenda?

Then Capita’s forthcoming National Children’s Trust Conference is specifically designed with You in mind. Timed to coincide with the crucial results of the Consultation on Statutory Guidance for Children’s Trusts – this exciting day will bring together the key Child Trust policy leads from the DCSF, Ofsted, the Commissioning Support Programme and the Audit Commission to examine fundamental changes to the accountability, governance and inspection framework of Children’s Services.

With the consultation results expected to have far reaching implications for all Children’s Trusts, now is the time for senior children’s services professionals to come together. Don’t miss participating in innovative interactive sessions run by local Children’s Trusts examining how to maximise outcomes and meet the standards set in the DCSF ‘five essential features’ for a Children’s Trust.
