Welcome investment in support for vulnerable families which needs to be closely followed by long term & extended funding commitments in this yr’s spending review - linked to children’s centres & family hubs. Councils say extending this support will be vital to help children early

#twittereps - this is a must read. We need to keep being brave and creative to forcefully address the societal and structural causes of the needs and difficulties children face - please RT! @SueRoffey @DrJuliaHowe @ucledpsych@DECPOfficial@Melissa_Benn https://t.co/R9NSTL5OcZ
Such a great visual which encourages us to reconsider “attention seeking”. For children who have experienced #trauma, their behaviour may represent a desire to be remembered as they have lack the experience of being “kept in mind” through a consistent and nurturing relationship.
Children have a right to know about LGBT families – EHRC Chair Head teachers should not have to debate with parents to justify their decision as to whether or not to teach about the existence of LGBT families https://t.co/j6z74eN4x8
