  • The Best Start for Children in Jersey
    The Best Start for Children in Jersey By getting it right from the start, Jersey will become an island that works for all children and makes a sound investment in the island’s future. 1 About the Partnership Achieving better outcomes for children and families means working across traditional boundaries between government departments and partner agencies in both the public, private, voluntary and community sectors with parents and their children. The Best Start Partnership1 offers a new ‘whole system’ approach by bringing together a wide range of stakeholders in a single body. It has and will continue to draw on the voices of children and families with local representatives from the public, private, community and voluntary sectors to provide unique insights representing the interests of children in the development, implementation and evaluation of government strategy and policy. The purpose of the Partnership is to: • represent the interests of children in the development, implementation and evaluation of government strategy and policy • ensure that early years and childhood policy is co-ordinated, resource allocation is effectively prioritised and high quality practice is embedded across services and organisations • support and help implement, integrate and monitor delivery plans for relevant outcomes • support the delivery of the children’s plan • monitor and review the impact of policies and services for children and families Why the Early Years are crucial What happens in pregnancy and early childhood has the greatest impact on children’s futures as it impacts on physical and mental health throughout adulthood. “The period from conception to the start of school opens a critical and singular window of opportunity to shape the development of a child’s brain.

You will see from the Report that nine complaints were received by the Greffier of the States. Of that number two went to a full Hearing, whilst three Appeal Boards have been deferred until 2000 (including one complaint carried forward from the end of 1998). Of the two Hearings, the appropriate Board upheld the Committee’s decision on one occasion and requested a reconsideration of the other. From time to time there are those who say that Administrative Appeal Boards, or an equivalent ombudsman, should be given more teeth. I have to record that in the United Kingdom a recommendation is generally found acceptable as the appropriate authority almost always accepts the ruling of the ombudsman. Unfortunately such is not always the case in Jersey. I would point to the matter referred to under (b) below where the Planning and Environment Committee agrees with the recommendation and accepts the justice of the Board’s findings; but over a year has passed since the Board gave its decision and nothing has happened.

In 1814 it remained largely French-speaking, though it had been politically British for 600 years. The island's only town, St Peter Port (which in 1814 accommodated over half the population) had during the previous century developed a thriving commercial sector with strong links to England, whose cultural influence it began to absorb. The rural hinterland was, by contrast, characterised by a traditional autarkic regime more redolent of pre­ industrial France. By 1914, the population had doubled, but St Peter Port's share had fallen to 43 percent.

Structure of the Island’s secondary education system 18. Conclusion 19. Appendix: 19.1 Evidence gathering Chairman’s Foreword Student suspension has been one of many school-related issues causing growing concern to public and professionals alike in recent years. Not just in terms of increasing numbers but also the more fundamental question as to what mix of social/educational/health problems may underlie this. Indeed, as was witnessed within the process of the Sub-Panel’s investigation, the issues provoked passionate opinions of the justification and effectiveness of suspension. It should thus be stated quite clearly at this point that the Sub-Panel entered into the suspension review with no preconceived ideas or ready-made solutions. For each member of the Sub-Panel, I know that I can add quite without fear of contradiction that this was very much a learning experience where our eventual collective findings and recommendations were based entirely on analysis of the experiences and evidence we were presented with.

  • Client Information Education in Jersey
    Client Information Education in Jersey Education Education provision in Jersey is excellent, ranging from nursery and pre-school classes through to the age of 18. Nursery education has to be funded privately but a selection of nurseries and pre-schools offer excellent provision to pre-school children. Most of the States Primary Schools have a pre-school attached. Children are eligible to start pre-school if they are 3 years old on 1 September. Forms can be obtained from your local school. All pre-school children are allowed 20 hours per week for free at an approved nursery (this can be attached to the school or a private establishment). Primary Education Each parish on the island has at least one local States primary school, with the exception of St Helier, which has six. The choice of school depends on your catchment area and how big the school is – some primary schools have one class per year and some have two classes per year. There is only one intake per year at the start of September and any child who is 4 years old on the 1 September will be eligible to join Reception.
