In September's CYP Now: Early help, qualifications and training guide and two-year-olds' funded childcare

A 12-page special report examines all the latest policy, practice and research on early help.

Practice examples include an employability programme for teenagers struggling in education; a partnership in Coventry taking early action to tackle problems; Lincolnshire's early help strategy that cuts across all services; and a multi-agency early intervention service for pre-school children and their families in Manchester.

CYP Now's 17-page Children's Workforce Qualifications and Training Guide details entry-level requirements and training opportunities for the entire children and young people's workforce.
