The international contributors to Supporting Difficult Transitions
discuss examples of transitions that are problematic for children,
young people and their carers. Focusing on vulnerable children and
young people, the transitions include: starting school, changing
schools, starting work, entering a new culture or a culture that
has been changed to focusing on vulnerable children and young
people. The book will be useful to practitioners involved in
supporting children and their carers as they make these moves;
students and course tutors in the caring professions; researchers;
and policy makers and those who implement policy for children and
young people. The different case examples are given coherence by
drawing on cultural-historical approaches to how people move
between practices. Particular attention is paid to how
practitioners can build shared understandings of what matters for
children and young people and for the institutions they are
entering. These understandings become a resource to strengthen
collaborations between practitioners or between practitioners and
the children and their carers, as they support entry into new
practices.
