Extended Services in Schools and Integrated Children's Centres

This section contains information and resources to support schools and their partners in meeting the Extended Schools agenda. The information builds on the "Extended Schools and Integrated Children's Centres - a guide for schools and their parents in the City of York" purple folder that was distributed in 2005. New and revised guidance will be published here as the agenda progresses. Guidance around finance and human resources are currently being developed.

If you can't find the information you are looking for please use our "ask anything" page. Any questions you post will be answered by the relevant team that deals with that area of work. Over time we will build up a frequently asked questions section to make finding answers easier.
