About this module

This module is has been designed to develop your knowledge of child development across the age span while highlighting the vulnerability of this age group.

The module will encourage an exploration of child developmental theories, including the concepts of attachment and resilience. Assessment tools and models of care will be identified and constructively critiqued.

The teaching will include lectures, group work, activities and case studies and will be enhanced through student engagement. The assessment is based on a case study from within the practice setting. The case to be studied will be in the appendix of the work leaving the main body of the text available for a depth of analysis and critique of child development, professional intervention, preventative work and safeguarding measures undertaken in order to assess and negate the negative impact upon the child.
