I found this book to be of value for students on the Undergraduate programme. It is extremely well organised and well written. The links between and across ages, stages of learning and concepts are well explored and very user friendy.
This is a well written book which is accessible to students.
A very interesting book which covers a variety of areas from child development, to child protection/safeguarding to equality and diversity. The overview at the beginning of the chapter is helpful in identifying if what you need will be covered. The further reading and referencing at the end of the chapter is helpful also especially for those who are researching certain areas.
Good depth and coverage whilst remaining readable for the average undergraduate
An informative discussion of integrating services and provision for children and adolescents. This book supports learners understanding of inclusion and the legal process of the multi agency concept.
The book is a valuable teaching tool for our courses and have been recommended to our social work and child branch nursing students
