Course Content (Syllabus)
We are interested in the ways the school and family partnerships have grown in collaboration with social and mental health services in order to support children and young people identified as facing psychosocial difficulties. The aim of the module is the emergence of new and critical professional practices in the children’s and adolescents’ mental health field. These practices need to resist to the culture of individualized blaming and the moral panics that lead to the social exclusion of children from schools. The module makes three notable contributions: a) it develops ethical professional practices in respect of the children who are labeled as having “difficulties” or “disabilities” by placing the students of the Department of Education at different Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHs), social and educational services b) it develops interprofessional partnerships with other disciplines such as psychologists, social workers, special educators, etc. and c) it develops reflective and proactive styles of work within the educational context, through consultation and supervision of the students in their different placements.
