Welcome to Social Pedagogy |
|
During the course of 2007, the Social Education Trust (SET) funded, and the National Centre for Excellence in Residential Child Care (NCERCC) ran, two pilot projects to assess the possible contribution of Social Pedagogy in residential child care settings in the UK. In the closing meeting of the advisory group responsible for these projects, participants were both conscious and anxious that, without further funding, the momentum of interest in Social Pedagogy might become fragmented and lose the cohesion required to take things forward. See proposals for development. It seemed necessary to provide a meeting place for those engaged with this idea, and - possibly more importantly - for those not yet informed about the approach. This has led to the creation of a meeting point in the virtual world - this website: Social Pedagogy UK is a meeeting place for people interested in Social Pedagogy and its use in the United Kingdom. See our Frequently Asked Questions for an overview and background on Social Pedagogy.
