Although development work for this has now been completed, workforce development still remains a key priority within the school readiness programme with an ongoing programme of activity agreed to address some of the key challenges outlined above. \r The role will support with a number of key activities relating to workforce development outlined below, providing specialist expertise to support the GM programme of work. \r
