It examines the policy context in relation to work with children and young people, looks at the history of partnership working and reviews the theories underpinning the different models of partnership working. The author evaluates the literature relating to partnership working and explores how we can get beyond local political schisms and historical conflicts to provide the best services for children. The book will provide practical guidance for policy makers, service planners, managers and practitioners on how to plan, fund and deliver services in partnership for children and young people.
