New Management Guide: Children and Social Work Act

A new guide to the Children and Social Work Act, which became law last year, is now available.

The guide comprises four articles looking at:

  • New local safeguarding arrangements, under which local children’s safeguarding board’s will no longer be statutory
  • Relationships and sex education, which sees 4-year-olds receiving relationships education in schools
  • Looked after children
  • Changes to the social work profession

It is written by former social worker and safeguarding consultant Ann Marie Christian.

The new management guide is available under the 'management' tab of the nursery world website, and here
