Social Work with Childrenoffers a coherent consideration of key concepts, ideas and values in the first section, which are then carried forward and integrated with the subsequent text in order to explore, in some depth, their implications for current practice in specific areas of social work with children.
Divided into two parts, this book:
• Explores interactions between children''s development, their relationships and the environments in which they are brought up, at different stages in their lives;
• Demonstrates how up-to-date legislation and policy across the UK shapes practice with different groups of children;
• Considers the expectations and requirements of social workers, and how this influences the development of professional identity;
• Encourages readers to reflect on their own skills, knowledge and experience by providing practice pointers throughout.
This is an outstandingly clear and comprehensive guide to social work with children for students and practitioners in the field.
