Description
Protecting and Safeguarding Children in Schools: A Multi-Agency Approach explores how schools identify and respond to child protection concerns. This book evaluates the impact of recent policy developments, including the Academies and Free Schools programme, as well as the restructuring of local authority children's services.
Based on a major ESRC-funded study, it highlights the findings on the child protection role played by schools, their decision-making processes and involvement in inter-agency working. The book is crucial reading for academics, practitioners and managers in children's social care and education.
Crucial insights into school safeguarding practices are presented, making this a valuable resource for those seeking to understand the complex issues surrounding child protection in schools.
