Inclusion Task Force
About Children and Young People’s Taskforce
The Children and Young People’s Taskforce will provide system-wide leadership for the implementation of Sheffield’s ‘shaped by what’s around us’ strategy.
It will support the re-balancing of the education, health and children’s services system so that more children learn and grow healthily, have positive experiences and achieve good outcomes.
It will make an important contribution to our goal of making Sheffield the place where all children belong and thrive.
Specifically, the Children and Young People’s Taskforce will function as:
- A communication and engagement system for a wide group of leaders and practitioners from education, health and children’s services.
- A reference point for priority leaders that helps to connect and align activity within and between priorities and, as a result, supports the SEND steering group and SEND improvement board.
- A support and challenge mechanism for all leaders in the local area SEND partnership.
- A mechanism for strengthening connectedness between the ’shaped by what’s around us' strategy and wider strategy in education, health and children’s services.
The group co-ordinates guidance & resources for the city and provides a core training offer to the city which can also be accessed via the menu above.
