This article has been brought to you by Slough Borough Council on behalf of Slough Children First for the attention of All Schools.
The Children’s Commissioner for England has launched The Big Ambition - a new campaign to hear directly from children and young people up to the age of 18. She wants to hear what they want Government to focus on, to make their lives and children across England’s lives better.
As we approach a General Election, she wants to ensure children and young people’s voices are reflected in policymakers’ decisions. Once she has a comprehensive picture of the practical changes that children want to see, she will call on all the political parties for these changes to be adopted across manifestos.
Please encourage any children and young people you work with to take part – they have until Friday 19 January.
The survey takes around 10 minutes to complete and can be completed on mobile phones, tablets, laptops and computers. There is also an option to complete an easy-read version with larger text. The questions are slightly different depending on the age of the child answering, but, everyone is asked what they think the Government should do to make children’s lives better.
It’s important to remember that the survey is not a test and that there are no right or wrong answers.
