Abstract | This report examines the range of factors that might influence the decision by social care professionals on the use of boarding schools as an intervention option for Children in Need (CiN) or children on a Child Protection Plan (CPP). Attempts to conduct a randomised controlled trial (RCT) failed to recruit participants. Initially, failure to recruit was attributed to randomisation inhibiting social care workers from making referrals. Subsequently, a Zelen's design was implemented with no improvement in recruitment. Finally, a two-stage design (including a first stage within-subjects design study where all participants received the intervention and a second stage matched comparison group) also failed to recruit. Despite the removal of randomisation it appeared that the intervention itself might be unappealing to social care workers. (ERIC). |
