Advanced Social Work with Children and Families

Edited by:


January 2011 | 192 pages | Learning Matters
Practice and legislation in child and family social work are always changing and have once again come under the spotlight. This text contextualises the bureaucratisation and managerialism of modern social work while also covering the advanced and complex skills necessary for competent social work practice in this area. The recent introduction of a new framework for Post-Qualifying social work practice provides an opportunity for the development of a robust text covering the basics at an advanced level.

What's Important for Looked-After Children? The Views of Young People Leaving Care

Excellent book that offers a numerous opportunities for students to reflect on their post qualifying practice and experiences. I like that it covers a variety of themes and areas, meaning that it applies and appeals to most practitioners.
