Northumberland Extended Services

Welcome to Northumberland Extended Services Website

Building on the Governments extended schools prospectus 'Extended Schools: access to opportunities and services for all' (2005) delivery of the Northumberland Extended Services strategy has gone from strength to strength.  Working closely with all schools and partner agencies the strategy is based on the idea that extended schools are at the heart of the delivery of Every Child Matters and Every Parent Matters!

Robin Casson, Director of Schools and Family Support identified the Extended Services Strategy 'makes a valuable contribution to improving outcomes for children including raising academic standards and achievement and improving the health and well being of people within our communities'

Through successful partnership working all school are supported by locally based extended services staff and a central team to ensure we achieve nationally set targets for schools delivery of the full core offer.
