Continuing Professional Development: All about attitudes

Integrated working allows children's centres to offer a one-stop shop, explains Karen Faux.

With the children's centre programme now in its final phase, strategies on integrated working are becoming more clearly defined. The NDNA's workshop - An approach to integrated working - aims to help professionals embed integrated working into their settings.
