This guidance, published by the DCSF May 2008, promotes the participation of children and young people in decision-making in school, local authority and related settings and provides advice on the principles and practice that support such involvement.

The guidance reinforces the many existing opportunities for skills development and participation, including: personal and social development; Citizenship education; and Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education with particular reference to the Personal Wellbeing programme of study.
