The National Youth Agency has published a report on the impact of youth work in England. The report includes a survey of schools and youth work organisations and external research. Findings show youth work in and out of schools impacted young people’s health and wellbeing as well as their attendance, behaviour, and attainment. Recommendations call for: dedicated, stable and joined-up funding; an enhanced Ofsted inspection framework; and a joined-up approach for training and workforce planning between schools and youth work.
