C&I provision develops from, and responds to, the characteristics and changing needs of the local community. In particular, the C&I approach stresses the importance of involving children in shaping the learning opportunities, so that the provision is in tune with their concerns, interests and needs.

This participation by children and other local people will help to foster a strong sense of community ownership, encouraging members of the community to invest time and energy in sustaining and developing the provision.
