(DCSF) – one of the government departments set up by the Prime Minister on 28 June 2007 to replace the Department for Education and Skills (DfES) – was responsible for improving the focus on all aspects of policy affecting children and young people, as part of the Government's aim to deliver
educational excellence. More...
DfE - Department for Education
The Department for Education was formed on 12 May 2010 and is
responsible for education and children's services. Current aims of the
Department include 'giving greater autonomy to schools', 'improving parental
choice', 'offering more support for the poorest', 'whole system improvement',
and 'great quality provision for children'. The Department aims to fulfil these
aims through the Academies programme, allowing parents to set up their own
schools, a pupil premium to address deep-rooted disadvantage, expanding Teach
First, and bringing Sure Start back to its original purpose.
