In a climate of unprecedented change and challenges in child care and protection, we have introduced an innovative, inter-professional postgraduate course this is dedicated to integrating contemporary practice within theoretical frameworks that encourage critical thinking, analysis and reflexivity.

The programme draws heavily from the experiences of children and families, recognising the value of this within the context of trauma informed frameworks, research, social policy and legislation as well as considering the professional and personal demands of the complex nature of work on professionals.
