Abstract:
The provision of day care in Children's Centres is considered to be one of the key delivery mechanisms to achieve outcomes for children as set out in the Every Child Matters Agenda (DfES, 2003). The outcomes include, being healthy, staying safe, enjoying and achieving, making a positive contribution and economic well-being. The aim is to improve outcomes for all young children and in particular close the gap between the most disadvantaged and others. It is the intention that outcomes for children will be improved by increasing high quality integrated childcare and early learning. Although the

Rodgers’ evolutionary model of concept analysis was used to develop definitions of children’s nursing and their special needs, from which the inherent qualities of children’s nurses were extrapolated and tested in a variety of ways. Firstly selectors of children’s nursing students evaluated the suitability of six hypothetical candidates, in a self administered postal questionnaire. There was some agreement on the identified pre-requisite qualities. Secondly a content analysis of 25 job descriptions for newly qualified children’s nurses, using NUD*IST was undertaken, to determine English NHS Tr

Abstract:
In countries such as Australia, children's active and independent mobility has declined in the past 40 years, with less children walking to school. As physical activity is a key component of child health and well-being this decrease in children’s independent mobility (CIM) and active travel (AT) has placed children at greater risk of physical and mental health problems. To confront this problem, travel behaviour change interventions to promote active and independent school travel are currently deployed in Australia by local and state governments.

Between 2006 and 2010 New Labour launched a network of children's centres as one element in a programme of reform of services for children. Sure Start children's centres were set up as multi-agency settings for children under the age of five and their families. Concomitant with these developments a number of policies converged to give momentum to the notion of children's participation in matters that affect their lives. Political measures included Every Child Matters (DES, 2003) and section 3.5 of the Childcare Act (2006) which stated that local authorities must consider the views of children

For the many thousands of children in poor countries who drop out of school and so lose out on the life-chances that education might offer them, the notion of a ‘right to education’ has little meaning.

While current ‘whole-school approaches’ to children’s rights seem promising, failure to address underlying problems reduces their effectiveness.
