Doing well at school can make a huge difference to a child's life chances. For looked after children, school can also provide much-needed stability and security. But on average, children and young people in care do not do as well in school as their peers. How can social workers help children to thrive in education, reap the benefits of the stability it offers, and reach their potential? This book looks at some positive steps that workers and carers can take to support looked after children in school.
