Provides an overview of current legislation that underpins children and family social work. Law is evolving, and the difference between statute, regulation, case-law and guidance is clarified, together with an exploration of the important difference between duties and powers. The module covers the Children Act 1989, children’s rights, and provides a summary of more recent children's legislation. Both public and private law is covered in the module.
