The latest child welfare items that should be right on your radar:
- Cafcass publishes new practice framework to support children and families
- Why social workers are being embedded in schools
- Home Office and Kent Council face legal challenge over ‘unlawful’ treatment of child asylum seekers
Many thanks to Tum Mum for alerting us to the second item.
Researching Reform 
Really I have a problem with the rituals (Re Cafcass et al) of making documents of good practice and it’s often done when confidence in services lowers… Well someone logical might say: “you expect that” but then I’d say how many times does good practice need to be idealised and re-idealised and again and again ?…..
Cleaning up the family lives of others must become a deeper analysis than resorting to current methods of variuos severances employing so many bureau-bodies .. Alas reform is barely on the agenda .. .. Truly good local services for family therapies and with decent communal contacts with human faces are missing …
