The issue of asylum seekers and refugees causes intense media and political debate. Whilst the political debate centres on entry control, much of the media coverage is negative. However, little attention has been paid to how asylum seekers and refugees could be helped to rebuild their lives in the UK or elsewhere. This book analyses the social policies that impact on refugee children's education and features:An informative background to the migration of refugeesAn outline of international refugee lawHow policy towards refugees is madeHow policy relates to practiceCurrent issues of concernCase studies examining refugee children's experiencesAlternative visions for refugee settlementDrawing on the testimonies of refugee children, this timely book brings a much-needed insight into the pressing problems and needs of refugee children. It is valuable reading for students of education, sociology and social policy as well as education, health and social work professionals.
