Key themes

The full report contains three substantial thematic sections.

The first, ‘Improving life chances: outstanding education and social care’, examines the means by which providers achieve excellence and, in so doing, make significant improvements in the life chances of the most disadvantaged children, young people and adults.

The second thematic section is entitled ‘Safeguarding children’, and in it we report on the progress that has been made in ensuring children grow up safe from harm and neglect, and with the personal skills needed to enter adult life successfully. This section draws on the third joint chief inspectors’ report on arrangements to safeguard children.

The final thematic section reports on the quality of the provision that seeks to enable learners to acquire the skills needed for successful working lives.
