Abstract	The growing social phenomenon of grandparents caring for their grandchildren has implications for educational psychology practice, since children who are wards of their grandparents frequently experience problematic school functioning. In this paper, the literature regarding children cared for by grandparents is reviewed. Issues concerning attachment, social support, and the children's school-related functioning are emphasised. In addition, theoretical and practical school-based interventions to help these grandchildren are described. (Author).
