Unlike a lot of books written about the concept of Every Child Matters (ECM), this tells the story from the perspective of children aged up to 12.
The book requires the reader to review the ECM journey and question the progress and impact of the education, health and social services, in addition to the third sector and the role of the family.
Individual personal accounts, along with relevant research and feedback from a wide range of settings, cover a wide range of often complex aspects of children’s lives.
The reader is required to properly consider the potential of children to influence decision making and bring about change. It also questions how much more ECM could have delivered if children’s perspectives had been taken into account.
