Social Pedagogy in the UK today: where are we up to and where are we going?
Social Pedagogy is often translated as ‘education in its broadest sense’, and brings an educational lens to social problems. This seminar will introduce Social Pedagogy from its origins in 19C Germany, discuss the findings of comparative research focused on looked after children in Denmark, Germany and England, and map recent policy and practice initiatives to adapt social pedagogic approaches to work with children, young people, and families in multiple settings in the UK. I will finish by presenting ongoing work to develop infrastructure for the development of social pedagogy in the UK.
