Disabled Children

The Centre for Excellence and Outcomes in Children and Young People's Services (C4EO) has recently published a series of studies which examine current provision for disabled children, and how this could be improved in the future. Links to each of the reports are below:

• Improving the Wellbeing of Disabled Children through Early Years Interventions (Age 0–8)
• Improving the Wellbeing of Disabled Children and Young People through Improving Access to Positive Activities
• Ensuring all Disabled Children and Young People and their Families Receive Services that are Sufficiently Differentiated to Meet their Diverse Needs

The C4EO website looks like it's well worth visiting on a regular basis; the organisation is a relatively new one, and focuses its work on children's services on seven different themes as identified by Every Child Matters. Already it has also published a series of studies on Early Years, and reports on vulnerable children; child poverty; parents, carers and families; youth; schools and communities are all set to follow over the coming months.
