Help shape the future of Scotland's children's sector workforce.

Newsletter, issue 1

As part of a 12-month programme exploring children's sector workforce development in Scotland, Children in Scotland will publish a series of four newsletters.

One of the key challenges identified in this first newsletter, is the need for an overarching framework to organise workforce development right across the children's sector - across education, childcare, health, social work and the many other groups who work with and for children.

Contributors have higlighted the need for core skills and competencies, and a shared conceptual thinking about children and childhood across the sector. They have explored suggestions that range from a shared module to the introduction of an entirely new qualification and profession based on the principles of pedagogy.
