financial and service planning to ensure plans are affordable and to support the system to be financially sustainable. HEE is expected to ensure that recruitment to, and delivery of education and training for the future workforce and development of the current healthcare workforce supports equality and results in patients, carers and the public reporting a positive experience of healthcare consistent with the values and behaviours identified in the NHS Constitution. HEE will ensure training supports a culture of continuous learning and improvement in safe services with a focus on reducing the rates of stillbirths, neonatal and maternity deaths and other adverse outcomes such as sepsis and intrapartum brain injuries. HEE will continue to use its expertise and influence to assure and continuously improve the learning environment by working with providers to deliver high quality clinical and public health placements based on high quality outputs and educational outcomes. HEE, in delivering its functions, also needs to be mindful of the need to support the Secretary of State in meeting his duty to reduce health inequalities in England. We expect HEE to work with partners to ensure that the NHS has available the right number of staff to deliver on the commitment to provide the same quality of Government’s care in hospitals for urgent and emergency services seven days a week. Objective 3: To deliver value for money The Government currently invests over £4.8 billion each year in central funding for the training and development of the future NHS and public health workforce. HEE will continue to work with partners to ensure that the usage of this funding is maximised and distributed fairly to meet service needs. HEE should ensure that through its recruitment, education and training it supports value for money. In particular, HEE will use the evidence from the Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) programme which is specifically designed to improve quality and reduce variation in care in the provider sector. By using the GIRFT evidence and dashboards alongside its Quality Framework and Commissioning for Quality strategy, HEE will improve its evaluation of the quality of training placements and their associated outcomes. This will help HEE continue to support the development of a workforce shaped to meet the changing needs of the NHS. Objective 4: Preventing ill health and supporting people to live healthier lives The Five Year Forward View has a strong focus on preventing avoidable ill health and premature mortality. HEE plays a critical role in commissioning education and training for public health specialists and other public health staff in Public Health England and local
