Practitioner-Led Research (PLR) 2008-09

Integrated Working

CWDC would like to commission up to 100 PLR projects during 2008-09. These small-scale research projects will focus upon integrated working within the children's workforce, which will help to further inform workforce development through learning from those who deliver and receive services.

PLR is keen to find out more about how members of the children’s workforce work with each other and with the children and young people for whom they provide a service.

Through the PLR programme, CWDC wants to know more about:

• what children and young people think of the services they receive;
• how the workforce works together across organisations and boundaries to deliver integrated services;
• how practitioners are transferring integrated working policies into practice;
• what current effective practice looks like;
• how services could be developed further.
