Welcome to the embrace-learning website about the government’s policy framework entitled Every Child Matters (ECM). This site also contains information for anyone looking for a training course in the Common Assessment Framework (CAF). In the near future, we will be adding material concerned with the Common Core and Common Induction standards for child care workers.
E-learning allows you learn at your own pace and at a time and place that suits you.This online training course in the Common Assessment Framework (CAF) has been developed to equip anyone who works with children, young people and families with the knowledge and skills to work with the CAF. To view a demo of the course and find out more about what’s in it click on the button below.
In 2003, the Government published a green paper called Every Child Matters. This was published alongside the formal response to the report into the death of Victoria Climbié, the young girl who was horrifically abused and tortured, and eventually killed by her great aunt and the man with whom they lived. The Children’s Act 2004 was passed the following year. The Act places responsibility on child practitioners to use a common assessment framework to identify and communicate additional needs of children.
We have prepared a free learning pack which contains some essential learning points and useful facts about what you need to know about the CAF. Click on the button below to register for your Free Learning Pack.
