    Changing staff to child ratios for two-year olds: families need quality and affordability

    DfE will be consulting the children’s sector on changing staff to child ratios for two-year-olds. What evidence do we have that this proposal will lead to better outcomes for our youngest children?

    NCB statement on national review into the murders of Arthur and Star

    Star Hobson and Arthur Lanbinjo-Hughes were murdered by members of their close family who have been rightly held accountable for these terrible crimes. But their cases also highlight, yet again, what can happen if public services do not work together effectively and information about vulnerable children is not shared in a timely way.

    NCB statement on the Review of Children's Social Care

    The Review has not shied away from the challenge, addressing knotty issues like multi-agency working, the huge and unnecessary barriers to sharing information about children, and the broken care market. But now we need urgent action from Government to embrace these plans.

    New law puts children at the heart of NHS integrated care

    NCB's response to Education White Paper

    NCB supports a world-class education system that empowers every child to fulfil their potential. For decades we have known that children who are more vulnerable, including those with special educational needs and disabilities, children from poorer backgrounds, and those who are Looked After, do not do as well as they should.
