Providing a Sure Start by Naomi Eisenstadt

Providing a Sure Start by Naomi Eisenstadt

This book tells the story of Sure Start, one of the flagship programmes of the last government. It tells how Sure Start was set up, the numerous changes it went through, and how it has changed the landscape of services for all young children in England. Offering insight into the key debates on services for young children, as well as how decisions are made in a highly political context, it will be of keen interest to policy academics, senior managers of public services and all those with a keen interest in developing services for young children.

"[Eisenstadt's] account of Sure Start is well-informed, clear and comprehensive, but also lively, engaging and deeply insightful" Jane Waldfogel, Journal of Children's Services, Vol 7 No 2 2012.
