Children's Homes and School Exclusion by Isabelle Brodie Pdf

"Along with such factors as ethnicity, gender, age and geographical location, Brodie shows how individuals, educational institutions, local authorities and central government policy all have a role to play. She outlines the need for young people to have supportive relationships with caregivers and stresses the importance of collaboration between social work professionals in residential care and education professionals. She also highlights the practical significance of early intervention. This book will prove invaluable to those professionals and students involved in the education of children in care and for policymakers, academics and practitioners working in residental care."--BOOK JACKET.

Managing Children's Homes by Sarah Byford,Ian Gibbs,Leslie Hicks,Helen Weatherly Pdf

Managing Children's Homes focuses on leadership, effective management, the allocation of resources, and ensuring positive outcomes for young people in residential care. The book develops an interdisciplinary understanding of what needs to be taken into account when establishing and maintaining good practice on behalf of young people living in children's homes.

The skills and qualities that make effective managers of homes are explored. These, along with factors such as the provision of resources, are investigated to demonstrate how to attain a successful children's home environment and longer-term achievement for looked-after children. Based on innovative, DfES-funded, interdisciplinary research, this book will be essential reading for staff and managers in children's care homes and will also be of interest to students, policy-makers and directors of social services.

No Lessons Learnt by Roger Smith Pdf

This is a survey of local education authorities' records on temporary and permanent exclusions highlighting some disturbing facts. The number of exclusions continues to be very high; the highest number of temporary exclusions recorded for one secondary school was 469 for the year, more than two exclusions per school day. Basic record-keeping by local education authorities is inconsistent and incomplete: gender and ethnic monitoring varies enormously between authorities; and over half the authorities had no information about exclusions of children in care. Few authorities had any policies in place to deal with the problems associated with exclusion, although those that did showed a decline in numbers of excluded children. This book includes reports of two Children's Society projects working in schools to reduce exclusions and to create practices which foster the inclusion of all children in schoolife. The survey confirms a severe and growing problem, where the information necessary to form an accurate picture is not in place. The Children's Society makes a series of practical recommendations to tackle and reduce this urgent problem.
