Program Overview

With increases in the number of children suffering abuse, neglect and poverty and growing numbers of young people taken into care here in the UK, safeguarding of children remains a key priority both at home and globally.

This course offers the opportunity to delve into the complexities of law and social policy relating to children and young people, examining the relationships and interactions between legal institutions, the various professionals and agencies involved with childcare, and society in general.

Practical in focus and constantly updated to reflect new safeguarding issues that arise, the course concentrates primarily on UK child law – including the Child Care Act 2016, the Children Act 2004 and related legislation – while being mindful of the global challenges that child protection and welfare presents. This means you explore everything from trafficking and modern slavery of children, to adoption, child arrangements orders and removal of children into care.
