Every Child Matters changed the educational landscape. Instead of focusing simply on learning and attainment, it broadened schools' remit to include true achievement, tying well-being and standards together to provide a more rounded experience and improve life chances for all. This guide examines how leaders are translating this policy into schools on a daily basis.
It discusses each of the ECM outcomes, looking at what the seemingly simple aims mean, how they can be applied in school and what difference they make. It also explains the importance of ECM to the National College, looking at how we are working to help you achieve it in your school through training, online resources, conferences, publications and more.
Finally, it features interviews and examples from headteachers who are already providing extended services and working towards ECM. They explain the changes they have made as a result of ECM, and what a difference it has made to their school. Offering a glimpse of policy in action, it provides an inspirational look at what can be achieved.
