Day Care for Children in Need: Universal Provision or a Targeted Service?
Statham, June
Early Child Development and Care, v136 p1-15 Sep 1997
Explores provision of early childhood services, particularly day care, within the framework of welfare policies and the concept of need. Outlines the development of day care policy in Britain and considers how, within current policy of targeting children with "need," local authorities might make provision available to a wider range of families, in line with research on early intervention.
