Twelve Opportunity Areas have been identified in England to tackle social mobility.

Blackpool has been identified as one of these areas based on the Social Mobility Commission's social mobility index and education data.

A local partnership has been formed with early years providers, schools, colleges, the Local Enterprise Partnership, businesses, charities and local authority to ensure all children have the opportunity to reach their full potential.

A key aim of Opportunity Areas is to build young people's knowledge and skills and provide them with the best advice and opportunities, including working with organisations such as the Careers and Enterprise Company, the Confederation of British Industry, the Federation of Small Businesses, and the National Citizen Service.

The Department for Education (DfE) is targeting its programmes to ensure children get the best start in the early years, to build teaching and leadership capacity in schools, to increase access to university, to strengthen technical pathways for young people, and work with employers to improve young people's access to the right advice and experiences.
