Ten top tips on supporting education
£9.95
The Ten Top Tips series considers some of the fundamental themes in child care practice in concise, practical guides ideal for busy practitioners.
Doing well at school can make a huge difference to a child’s life chances. For looked after children, school can also provide much-needed stability and security. But on average, children and young people in care do not do as well in school as their peers. How can social workers help children to thrive in education, reap the benefits of the stability it offers, and reach their potential?
This book looks at some positive steps that workers and carers can take to support looked after children in school. Each of the ten chapters presents a basic “tip” in an accessible and straightforward style. This guide is invaluable for quick reference and practical advice on ensuring that children’s time in school makes a positive difference to their lives and futures.
This book is for all practitioners involved with looked after children and young people.
