Review of the Fuctions of Educational Psychologists
http://www.dfes.gov.uk/rsgateway/DB/RRP/u014482/index.shtml
A Review of the Fuctions and Contribution of Educational Psychologists in England and Wales in light of 'Every Child Matters: Change for Children' Research Information
The implementation of the Every Child Matters (ECM) legislation represents, for Educational Psychologists (EPs), the most significant national strategic development since the publication of the DfEE (2000) report on the role of educational psychology services. The ECM agenda makes outcomes for children central to integrated Children's Services that form a team around the child and family in the context of community and school.
The study focuses on the views of a range of stakeholders as to the distinctive contribution that EPs can make in the newly established childrens services where there is an increased emphasis on multi-agency working and on the facilities and barriers that may exist.
