"In December of 2007, LLUK was commissioned by the Department for Children,
Schools and Families (DCSF) to work with the Children’s Workforce Development
Council and other stakeholders to undertake scoping work around a number of the
proposals resulting from the Ten Year Youth Strategy. One of these proposals is to
investigate the creation and introduction of a code of conduct across the youth work
sector. To take this work forward LLUK is delivering early planning and scoping
activities to consider how such a code of conduct scheme for youth work might be
designed, developed and implemented.
This paper reports on the research undertaken and focus groups that were held to
gather the sector view and use of codes of conduct. These will inform the
development of an implementation plan to take the work forward in 08/09." - Page 3
