Healthy Early Years and School Programme

Liverpool City Council is looking to commission a Healthy Schools and Early Years Programme. The programme will provide a structured, whole setting approach that supports the physical, emotional and social wellbeing of students, teachers, staff and parents. The programme is intended to provide co-ordinated and free, comprehensive and accessible health and wellbeing offer that will be responsive to new and emerging needs. It will support both settings and providers to increase access, choice and reduce duplication and will ensure that the local offer is based on the best possible evidence. The council is therefore exploring a model that focusses on co-ordination, partnership working and system leadership, bringing together and maximising the impact of existing services rather than replacing them.
