The Family Information Directory delivered by the Department for Education in partnership with local authorities and Families Information Services:
- gathers childcare and families services information across all local authorities in England
- combines this information with details of national services
- makes it available to parents and practitioners through a variety of channels including Family Information Services, DirectGov, Family Information Direct services providers and other authorised third and private sector partners who reach these audiences
The Family Information Directory vocabulary provides a:
- navigation structure suitable for web sites displaying information about services and facilities which may be of benefit to parents, prospective parents, children or young people
- subject vocabulary against which information can be tagged to improve searches by a central "aggregator" and local search engines using the information
The Family Information Directory only covers services and facilities, not publications. The target audience is parents and families.
The list is available in a variety of formats, including its native ZThes XML format from the "Formats" tab.
Complementary Controlled Lists
The Family Information Directory describes services and facilities. It draws on controlled lists maintained by the esd-toolkit and elsewhere. They are available in their native Zthes XML format: accreditation, area covered, facility, language spoken, channel, referral criteria, role, quality assurance levels and provision of positive activities.
