Synopsis

This expanded and updated second edition of "The Child's World" is the accessible and comprehensive multidisciplinary guide to assessing children in need and their families. The book not only provides an explanation of the Framework for the Assessment of Children in Need and their Families, but also a wealth of information on how to implement it sensitively and effectively, summarizing the latest research, policy and best practice. "The Child's World" covers: the assessment framework; the process of assessment; assessing the developmental needs of children; assessing parenting capacity; and, assessing family and environmental factors. This book is essential reading for practitioners in children's and adult services using the Framework, and will also be a valued source of knowledge and guidance for those working in legislative contexts outside of England.
