The Essex Education Task Force: Year of Reading 2022
Renewal Equality Ambition
What have we been up to as 2021 draws to a close?
Building on the success of the Task Force launch meeting held in May 2021, five further meetings have taken place. From the initial £1.5 million, investments to date are:
- An Early Years Communication Project has been launched which provides a suite of training for early years and childcare settings, including childminders, in supporting early language and communication.
- Every secondary school has received funding to support teenage mental health.
- Transition Officers to aid young people moving from Secondary School to Further Education started work during the academic year.
