{"product_id":"the-future-of-childrens-care-robin-sen-9781447368267","title":"The Future of Children's Care: Critical Perspectives on Children's Services Reform","description":"Over the last decade there has been a series of Government policy initiatives in respect of children's services and social work education in England, many of which aim to de-regulate or privatise aspects of these services. Critically considering the impact of the MacAlister Review, this book explores the past, present and future of children's services in the UK from a range of perspectives - lived, professional and academic. This accessible guide provides a timely and incisive overview of the current children's services reform agenda in the UK. It identifies current challenges, analyses both strengths and weaknesses in the current policy agenda and sets out alternative policy and practice directions for a system that can meet families' needs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Avery Bowser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447368266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447368267\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.50d","brand":"Avery Bowser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44071462174975,"sku":"9781447368267","price":28.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fe321bf0-2a8b-46ef-879a-9b80072e23f1.jpg?v=1685436236","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-future-of-childrens-care-robin-sen-9781447368267","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
