Through original archival research, it traces shifting perceptions of, and policy responses to, girls' delinquency and vulnerability during a period of remarkable social change. It examines the transition of provision for girls and young women 'in trouble' from the large-scale post-Victorian reformatories to the therapeutic Community Homes for Education, and the emergence of a 'diagnostic shift' in the provision of care for children in the juvenile secure estate. Through examining the experiences of younger children, it provides a more nuanced understanding of the role approved schools played for girls in need of care, protection, or control during this period, evidencing the gendered use of care-or-protection orders throughout, and the policing of child and family behaviours under the guises of the Education Act.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jessamy Carlson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031651073\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031651076\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.75d","brand":"Jessamy Carlson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46094337245439,"sku":"9783031651076","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a6f96f4a-68dc-4748-828f-e87fb584fe64.jpg?v=1724844362","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/approved-schools-for-girls-in-jessamy-carlson-9783031651076","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
