Working together with fellow professionals across different sectors of children′s services is central to good practice for all those who work with children and young people. This book looks at how children′s services can work together more effectively; by taking an approach that is grounded in research, the book engages critically with both the benefits and the pitfalls of integrated working.
The importance of relationships, roles, responsibilities and strategic planning is discussed, and chapters cover:

- how early years services work
- ethnicity
