The Social Education Trust have an important announcement this month on the future management and production of the Children Webmag. Full details are accessed from the Home Page. SET also have details in this months issue on their Travel Bursary Scheme.

In the Webmag this month, the Editorial examines the reasons for corporal punishment and the arguments against. Matthew Payne jumps on his soapbox and expounds on Blairwatching and Social Care. Rowan Dickman argues that Society is more bothered about protecting foxes than children. Jim Hyland talks about his book on the rise and fall of the approved school system.

Keith White's 'In Residence' column examines David Blunkett's new proposals, Gus Greene's Bluebrick Childrens Home has a nasty experience with cannabis, Kathleen Lane finishes her Baltic Tour and it seems that the pace of life is getting to Terry Hoom with his piece - To Sleep, Perchance to Dream.

Cuttings has a batch of items including The Quality of Teaching, Dealing with Miscreants, The Crisis facing the Catholic Church, Doctors and Investors in Children. If you would like to smile, there is also a true list of notes left out by householders for British Milkmen!

The International Section's Editorial this month looks at Child Protection as a World Issue - are we really all neighbours now? There's a report on an all-Europe forum looking at how exclusion affects girls and young women. Jim Anglin has a piece on Staff Group Homes for Children and Youth in Canada and Kathrin Schleenbecker from Germany writes on a Work Placement in South Yorkshire, UK.

All that plus hundreds of social work jobs - more local authorities are coming on board every week.
