The Birmingham Strategy
Our vision is for Birmingham to be an inspiring place where all children and young people enjoy living, learning, developing and achieving together whilst feeling secure in a city that is child and family friendly.
We have identified six priority outcomes that have emerged from national and local research. These six outcomes mean different things for children at successive stages of their development. Our strategy will improve children's:
- physical health;
- behaviour;
- emotional health;
- literacy and numeracy;
- social literacy (the ability to get along with people); and
- job skills.
A summary and the full strategy documents are provided below.
