A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

'Managed Moves' sets out a humane and effective approach to the management of children at risk of permanent exclusion from school. Exclusion rejects people, breaks social links and risks losing the child to the streets. A successful, voluntary managed move leads the child to safe, supervised surroundings where their educational needs can be met, whether in a Pupil Referral Unit, college, or mainstream school, or a combination of these which could also include work experience. This publication provides detailed guidance (including case studies, checklists, model letters and scripts) on how to facilitate a managed move and on the strategic development of this approach. Although the government has advocated the use of managed moves as an alternative to permanent exclusion since 2004, 'Managed Moves' is the first publication of its kind to be made available. It will be of immediate and lasting value to headteachers and inclusion managers, government, education authorities, schools, Pupil Referral Units, and other centres of education. It provides practical guidance to those in and out of schools who deal with pupils' difficult and disruptive behaviour, poor attendance, and exclusion. It is also a valuable resource for social and youth justice workers and other health and welfare professionals currently involved in exclusions and managed moves in both the statutory and voluntary sectors.
