There were many directions taken by different school systems. The most important beginning step was to poll or survey the different groups involved. Administrators agreed that one needs the majority of parents to approve and support the policy before it will work. The National Association of Elementary School Principals surveyed 755 principals who have a uniform policy already in place. To determine the amount of support for school uniform policies, many of the schools had polled parents (82%), school staff (66%), students (47%), other schools (45%) and the community (32%) (NAESP, 2000).

Comprehensive Treatment Plan Debra Workman UB School of Social Work April 24, 2011 In terms of a comprehensive intervention plan for the target system—19 year old, Stacy, and her three children—there are three levels of practice in which considerations must be made; micro, mezzo, and macro. For each level, it is important to consider the needs of the client, existing resources available, system gaps in service, and ways to empower the client toward improving their system’s functioning (Miley, O’Melia & DuBois, 2011). With Stacy, a strong understanding and application of generalist concepts and principles may prove effective in providing her with the tools and direction needed to handle various day-to-day situations while
Within 50-60 years all states had such laws on their books to at least get America's pupils through the elementary school years. Catholic schools emerged as private schools.” (web 6). However, there we many issues with educational system in mid-1800’s. First of all, the space where they had to learn curriculum was small room with couple of windows.

Many states including North Carolina have agencies like Easter Seals, United Cerebral Palsy, and other agencies that work with disabled children. Dr. Maureen Hack found in a study, done at Case Western Reserve of Preemies, that they may often need special help in classrooms. (Graham) To meet the growing needs of children, many school districts have early intervention programs and special programs to place these children in an appropriate school environment. This kind of support system enables families to better care for the disabled child and allows the child to have a better chance for

OUTLINE AND EVALUATE THE USE OF THE STRANGE STUATION TO ASSESS ATTACHMENT 12 MARKS The SS (strange situation) is a controlled observation research technique used to measure the kind of attachment between an infant (age between 9 – 18 months) and a parent. Ainsworth used 25 middle class working women and infants to help carry out this experiment. It is conducted in a lab environment with a 9x9 foot square, marked off in 16 squares to help record the infants’ movement accurately so as to compare and record how far the child explores. The procedure lasts 21 minutes each lasting three minutes. Ainsworth observed the experiment covertly using a one way mirror so as not do distort her results by having another stranger in the room.

The first article that I reviewed is titled Infant Developmental Outcomes: A Family Systems Perspective. Infant & Child Development. The main reason for this study is because the authors were interested in how “Parental mental health, parent-infant relationship, infant characteristics and couple’s relationship factors were associated with the infant’s development” (Parfitt, Pike, Ayers, 2014). To do this, the researchers gathered forty-two families and observed the infant at the ages of three months through the infant being video recorded, five months by giving the parents an in-depth clinical interview to evaluate their psyche and lastly at seventeen months they measured the infant’s cognitive language and motor development. To their surprise,
The effects of parenting styles (child-rearing practices) on the development of prosocial behaviour of children in early and middle childhood Abstract: Prosocial behaviour such as empathy, sharing and helping, is vital for healthy and effective relationships throughout life. Parenting styles have been found to significantly influence the amount of prosocial behaviour that a child shows (Dekovic & Jannsen, 1992; Berk, 2000). The relationship between prosocial behaviour and parenting styles was investigated interviewing 4 participants with regards to their parenting styles and the level of prosocial behaviour of their children. The participants were all mothers of two children aged between 4 and 8 years. Two white English-speaking mothers were interviewed, and two coloured Afrikaans-speaking mothers.
