Where is the common ground between Children and Young Peoples Services (CYPS) and
Museums, Libraries and Archives (MLAs)?
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 calls on all children’s services to be “more ambitious about improving outcomes
for children and young people”
The Children’s Plan takes Every Child Matters implementation forward to 2011 and beyond Children’s Plan 2020 goals

The New Local Performance FrameworkThe 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.
88
National Indicator Target categories• 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.
Museums libraries and archives offer…
Museums• End of term school trips• Learning about history: dressing as Victorians• Not much beyond the curriculum
Libraries• Every school has one• CYP can access information to help with homework
Archives• Dry and dusty records• Old documents not relevant to today

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 explosionof societal diversity and complexity
hundreds of times greater than we nowexperience or can yet imagine. If we think to
perpetuate the old ways, we shouldtry to recall the last time evolution
