Abstract:
AbstractSocial work is a sharing and caring profession based on scientific methods. This problem solving profession makes people self-reliant and self-dependent when he/she is in any sorts of crises. Thus, it differs from relief work, social services or social welfare delivered during emergence crises. This paper examined the application of professional social work as relief work, which did not bring any change among the beneficiaries; rather it set their mind as opportunist. For this purpose, the programme sponsored by the government of India and implemented by nongovernmental organizations for rehabilitation of the street children (i.e., pavements and slums dwellers, children of sex workers, and so forth) of Metro cities like Kolkata had priority. This evaluative study assessed the progress and changes among 500 street children who were the beneficiaries for 10 years of the programme, selected according to their parental residents/occupation through stratified sampling. Interviews, case studies and group interaction were used to collect data on various aspects, i.e. personal background, education, and occupation of these children. It revealed that after almost 10 years of services, the problem of children was static. Firstly, service delivery system was as relief work. The methods of social work were not implied while the professionals were in implementation. On the other hand, the scope of monitoring and evaluation of the programme by government was suspended due to several reasons. Definitely, the politicalization in human development would be restricted. The problems of suffering would be root out and it should not be a continued process.

Abstract:
An analysis of the social pedagogical work with difficult children is presented, outlining characteristics, specifics and approaches for prevention and social accompaniment. In order to highlight the specifics of this group of children, a comparison is made with two other groups of children in a situation of life difficulty - "socially disadvantaged children" and "children at risk". The analysis refers to the understanding that difficult children are children with impaired emotional development, difficulty in communicating with others and disrupted behavioral control, all of which can lead to consequences both on a personal and behavioral level. It is emphasized that difficult children turn into such in situations where adults cannot find an adequate approach to them, and most often these adults are members of the family, parents, or teachers. An overview of scientific positions on difficult children by English, American, Russian and Bulgarian researchers is offered. This is the basis for outlining the main spheres which affect children negatively and categorize them as "difficult children" - emotional-personal; learning-cognitive; behavioral; somatic. The reasons for children’s difficult behavior are examined, including: the family and the flaws in it; the lack of spiritual connection between parents and children; the asocial environment; participation in criminal groups; errors in the work of educational institutions; economic difficulties that have influenced all spheres of public life. The characteristics of problem children are presented that account for the formulation of the principles of social pedagogical work with them. It is emphasized that one of the important approaches in the work is the development of skills for social inclusion, social expression and self-assertion. The model for social pedagogical work with difficult children is developed in two aspects: preventive work and social accompaniment. Preventive work consists in constantly informing all stakeholders - teachers, educators, non-pedagogical staff in educational institutions and the family on the opportunities for preventing "difficult children" on the one hand, and ensuring interaction between the participants in the preventive activities as well as striving to attract more organizations and institutions, on the other. The social accompaniment as a social pedagogical work includes: identification of children with difficult behavior at the earliest stage of the disadaptation process, diagnosis of the factors of the difficult behavior and the reasons for the disadvantage, preparation of an individual road map for working with the child, implementation of the individual program for accompanying the child, measuring and analyzing the results of the child's work and his / her close circle.

Abstract:
The ultimate objective of newborn screening for sickle cell disease should be twofold. The first essential step is the identification of the infants at risk. This has been effectively done in New York state as of 1975 through the New York State Newborn Screening Program. However, identifying these children is not enough. Second is the much more complicated task of providing comprehensive follow-up care for families whose children are affected by the disease, including the much needed psychosocial services. This area continues to be sorely neglected. The increased risk of death due to overwhelming infection in the first 3 years of life for children with sickle cell disease has been noted in the literature. When there is no specialized care, 15% to 20% do not survive. Therefore, it is essential for knowledgeable staff to make contact and begin to develop a trusting relationship as soon as possible with parents of infants born with sickle cell disease. Prophylactic penicillin and pneumococcal vaccination can reduce mortality during the early years. Family involvement with a consistent, available team of health care providers is pivotal in understanding this chronic illness and coping effectively with this extraordinary stress. Our staff is available by telephone for consultations with patients or other medical staff during clinic and emergency room visits and hospitalizations. One element that is clear in our experience at the St Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Sickle Cell Center in New York City is that adjustment to this chronic illness is a lifelong process. One or two counseling sessions at the time of diagnosis are not sufficient to enable families to fully understand the information given or to realize the impact of having a child with a chronic illness.

Abstract:
It will be argued that, in order to understand particular exchanges between social workers and clients, it is essential to go beyond the view that sees them simply in terms of interaction between unique persons, and locate them within the wider discursive settings within which they occur. Most of the talk which takes place in these interviews concerns problematic issues within family life, particularly in terms of the relationships between parents and children. Behind these apparently mundane conversations lie agendas of social work issues which have been constructed historically with the rise of the caring professions. The early part of the thesis is concerned with uncovering the historically constructed norms of acceptable motherhood which underpin social work strategies with families and which help set the agendas of interviews. Then the analysis focuses on how general norms and objectives are translated into operational, professional techniques. This theme is carried forward through a focus on the social settings in which interviews take place, the building up of subject positions within interviews, for social worker and client, and the implications of translating from a predominantly oral to a literate based, professional mode of discourse. Finally, the analysis is concerned with the tentative attempts, marked by ambiguity and resistance, to go beyond the mere monitoring of the life of the client, and draw her/him into a form of discourse which is openly committed to social work aims, where the client seems to want to present his or her life problems in terms which are intelligible to, and manageable within, the strategies open to the social worker.

Abstract:
Domestic violence against children is well known on the social problem aspect, and Sweden has become the first country clarifying its stance on physical punishment and child abuse since established “anti-spanking” law in 1979. The purpose of this research was to investigate how Swedish social workers deal with the issue about domestic violence against children. The research was developed with hermeneutics approach and ecological systems theory, and carried out by four respondents from Social Services Gävle. With the answers claimed by the respondents, constitute the results and conclusions, that is all kinds of tackling methods about child abuse should be regulated by laws, and cooperate with police or citizens comprehensively, especially in the period of investigation.  This paper might be a general pattern, but we do hope it could make people rethinking about child abuse issues, that probably may reduce a little bit pressure to children in the future.

Bibliography: leaves 427-449.
In the 1860s work performed by children was reflected the wider labour market. Children undertook paid employment in formal situations and work of a more casual nature on city streets. They also performed unpaid work at households and farmsites. Children working at the homesite contributed to home based production and service, and also, through domestic duties, to the daily reproduction of labour. Children's participation in the workforce was significant in the three main sectors of the economy. Small-scale farming, most commonly on selections, made significant use of children's labour. Selection, and its appropriation of children's labour power, continued throughout the entire period. The colony's infant industrialisation utilised cheap, child labour in its development from craft-based to more intensive, larger-scale industry. Children's labour power was usually of financial import to their households and usually allocated with regard to age and gender. In times of intensive demand or financial difficulty, the need for children's labour could lessen gender strictures. Demand for children's labour power was, at times, in conflict with the expanding liberal state, which was extending its training and supervision of future citizens through primary education. Mass education was generally accepted, although many families used schools on a casual basis so that children could alternate work and schoolwork. The 1880 Public Instruction Act pragmatically reflected common practice by making some schooling compulsory. -- By 1916 patterns of children's work participation which held for much of the twentieth century were set. Children were virtually excluded, through attitudinal and legislative change, from the paid main-stream workforce. Their effective, and permanent, removal from the urban, industrial workforce had been closely controlled. Their use as casual labour, was circumscribed by adherence to daily, all-day compulsory schooling. Children's work on city streets was limited and regulated. Their work at the home site and in the rural sector continued, now fitted around demanding schooling requirements. -- Pressure on the state, from organised labour and other concerned interests, to remove children from employment in factories and streets had intensified from the 1890s. These demands were echoed by educational authorities, who, since the beginning of the period, had called for strict adherence to their full-time ideal model of school. The state, reflecting and consolidating attitudinal change, responded in an incremental fashion with increasing regulation and control. State action included the 1916 Education Act which could enforce adherence to the ideal school model. The withdrawal of children from mainstream labour was accompanied by an increasingly widespread, accepted and entrenched ideology of protected, nurturant and dependant childhood.

Abstract:
This study concerns social work practice with unaccompanied asylum seeking and refugee young people looked after by local authority Social Services Departments under s20 of the Children Act 1989. It examines the types of assistance offered by social workers that aids resettlement. Twenty nine social workers in four authorities were interviewed in relation to thirty four young people in their care. Each was asked to tell the story of one young person they were working with. The main aim of the study was to develop a detailed understanding of resettlement practice by social workers that addressed the young people's needs for practical assistance, emotional support, and companionship over a period of time, given their solitary circumstances after arrival in the United Kingdom. The interviews revealed that the social workers were guided by the young people's needs and capabilities towards three types of helping. The first, described in this study as 'humanitarian' practice, focused on practical 'outer world' assistance. The second, described as 'witnessing', focused on 'inner world' turbulence, helping the young people to manage uncertainty and distress, related primarily to past events. The third, described as 'confederacy' focused on the development of a protective friendship with the young people that was durable, long lasting and open ended. Each of these three types of helping appeared to be carried out in a particular 'domain' of practice, referred to in this study as the domains of cohesion, connection, and coherence. Each domain and each type of practice was considered by the respondents to be valuable. In addition to their practice being guided by the young people's needs and capabilities, many of them navigated across domains and between the different types of helping using their personal and professional experiences and their local cultures of working and learning.

Abstract:
Children living in vulnerability as living on the street has been a well discussed issue for a long time. The importance of addressing the factors of why children are living in vulnerability along with what concrete actions that can be taken to help these children to a safer life have formed the ground for this study. I conducted five semi-structured interviews with adults working with children and youth living in vulnerability in São Paulo, such as living in an occupied building so called occupation, in a slum area so called favela or on the streets. To receive a deeper understanding of the issue, four observations related to the different vulnerable living conditions were implemented. There are several factors found in the study that are arguing for the fact that children living in favelas or in an occupation are living well and are not living in vulnerability. The social movement engaged in these situations is providing the children with housing and other social rights, such as education and personal growth. On the other hand, there are numerous factors found in the study that confirms that children that are living on the street are living in vulnerability, since they get exposed to situations of violence, crime, drugs etcetera. One of the main reasons found in the study of why children are living on the streets in São Paulo are because they run away as a consequence of abuse or maltreatment. Another main reason is that they are kicked out or sent to the streets by their parents due to moral issues, for example unwanted pregnancy or homosexuality, or to earn money for the family, respectively. Overall, the study revealed that there are laws, public policies and social programs to guarantee children’s and youth’s rights, such as the constitution of children and adolescent rights. These have not been implemented properly or the people that have the right to access the policies or programs are not aware of them. Another conclusion drawn from the study is that there are some concrete actions that can be taken to help children and youth living in vulnerability in São Paulo to a better life. For example, that they should be provided with housing, education and social rights. To enable this, the government should refund the social programs that they have been cutting funding from, such as Bolsa Família [a Brazilian social welfare program for poor families].

Abstract:
Parents with children with special needs experience challenges when caring for their children. These challenges may be uniquely affected by the parent'€™s employment. Because social workers are in professional roles, understanding their lived experiences provides awareness of the needed services and resources that help social workers maintain effectiveness in their home and work life. This phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of social workers who have children with special needs. Bronfenbrenner'€™s ecological theory guided this study. Criterion and snowball sampling were used to recruit 8 participants. Data were gathered through 3 in-depth semistructured interviews. Moustakas phenomenology method was used to analyze data. Two themes emerged from the data (a) coming to terms with having a child with special needs and (b) balance of home and work life. Sub-themes included (a) self-care, (b) supervision, and (c) having an awareness of resources. Part of the experience included social work parents recognizing, understanding, and accepting that their child has a special need. Balancing home and work life was an important aspect for the participants. Part of balancing home and work life for these participants was ensuring the use of self-care methods, adequate supervision, and being aware of resources to mitigate their stressors related to their child'€™s special need. The findings may be used to create positive social change by informing administrators, specialists, counselors, and the profession of social work about areas of focus for strategies and interventions to address the needs of social workers parenting children with special needs.

Abstract:
Background: Social protection of families with children is a key element of Ukraine's social policy. The state plays an important role in formation of the family, since it undertakes the proper functioning and protection from social upheavals that have a negative impact on society, in particular on families with children. Purpose: outline domestic realities of social protection of families with children: problems and solutions. Methods: method of analysis, comparison, evaluation and generalization. Results: Having analyzed the opinions of the authors of scientific articles, the main problems of social security for families with children in Ukraine are: regulatory, financial, economic. In our opinion, while developing ways to eliminate these shortcomings, the first thing to do is overcome the problems in the context of poverty. Conclusion: Today, domestic realities of social security for families with children are not at a high level. Because there are a number of shortcomings that need to be addressed, particularly in the context of poverty alleviation. Therefore, the state must solve these problems, because it has undertaken the obligation of decent functioning of families with children. Keywords: social security, families with children, state assistance.

Abstract:
Background. Unfortunately, according to the Ministry of Social Policy, as of 2022, there were almost 70,000 orphans and children deprived of parental care in Ukraine, and about 10,000 children become orphans every year. Knowing that we are now living in a difficult time, a time of war, we understand that the number of orphans and children deprived of parental care will increase even more, so the state must provide every child with the necessary protection and care that is necessary for their well-being, taking into account her guardians or other persons responsible to her by law, and to this end take all appropriate measures to give the child the opportunity to develop comprehensively and adapt to life in society. Purpose: determine the specifics of providing state social assistance to orphans and children deprived of parental care. Methods: method of analysis, synthesis, comparative method and generalization, analysis of documents. Results: Depending on the form of state social assistance provided to orphans and children deprived of parental care, they can be divided into: 1) state social assistance provided in cash (full state support, scholarship, special scholarships, assistance for orphans and children deprived of parental care, reimbursement of daily expenses during vacations, one-time monetary assistance for graduates, etc.); 2) state social benefits provided in kind (housing, etc.). 3) Social patronage and social support as the main forms of social assistance to orphans and children deprived of parental care. Conclusion: state social assistance for children is awarded in monetary form to foster parents for each foster child and to adoptive parents for each adopted child, and in accordance with the legislation, the amount of state social assistance for an orphan child or a child deprived of parental care is 2.5 subsistence minimums for children of the appropriate age, for children with disabilities - 3.5 subsistence minimums. Keywords: an orphan child; children deprived of parental care; social patronage; social support.

Abstract:
Background: Child foster care is a much-needed service. It solves a number of urgent issues: preventing children from entering boarding schools, supporting biological parents, and preserving families. The development of family-based care in Ukraine has been slow since 2017. This issue is regulated at the legislative level, but there are certain gaps in the issues after the implementation of the decentralization reform, search, selection and training of candidates for foster care, supervision, responsibility for the child's health, labor and financial support of foster care. Objective: Based on the study, to find out the peculiarities of the functioning of foster care in Ukraine at the present stage. Methods: analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization to study the content of theoretical sources and systematic understanding of the problem; analysis of documents to study the scientific, regulatory and practical aspects of the issue; analysis of data on the dynamics of the problem. Results: The analysis of scientific literature and case study data confirmed our hypothesis about the slow dynamics of the development of family patronage services in Ukraine and the existence of a number of problems in this area. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate the existence of a number of legislative problems, as well as problems related to the culture and mentality of society in the field of family patronage. We assume that the challenges of today will change the value perception of this problem in a positive way. Key words: child patronage, foster care, biological family, family forms of upbringing, social policy, public organization.

Abstract:
Background: Institutionalization of social policy in the field of social welfare of children deprived of parental care is a very urgent problem in the modern world. According to UNICEF, more than 140 million children in the world need social protection, including children deprived of parental care. Institutionalization of social policy in the field of social security for children deprived of parental care means the creation and development of a state support system that provides children with the necessary housing, food, medical care, education and psychological support. Institutionalizing social policy is essential to ensure children have the resources and support they need to develop and live fulfilling lives. Purpose: Identifying ways and tools that can ensure the effective institutionalization of social policy in the field of social welfare of children deprived of parental care, and providing them with appropriate conditions for the development and exercise of their rights to a full life. Methods: The theoretical research method consisted in the analysis of documents used to study the works of scientists regarding the study of the processes of institutionalization of social policy in the field of social security. Results: The study showed that the institutionalization of social policy is a key element of creating an effective system of social protection, which provides children deprived of parental care with the necessary conditions for full development and exit from difficult life situations. The study indicates that an important component of the institutionalization of social policy is the creation of an effective system of management and coordination of work between various state authorities and public organizations that provide social protection for children deprived of parental care. Conclusion: It is also worth noting that for the Ukrainian social security system in the context of the institutionalization process, the issue of implementing social control, that is, public control in this area, is relevant and acute. In our opinion, the inclusion of public control is one of the ways to improve the activities of social institutions in the field of social protection of children deprived of parental care. Keywords: institutionalization, social policy, social security, social protection, social orphans, children, deprived of parental care.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a dynamic conceptual framework – the edu-workscape – for understanding how rural children in sub-Saharan Africa navigate three key gendered social arenas: the household, school and workplaces. Focusing on school, in particular, the paper highlights the violence, harm and labour that occur there, and argues that learning, work and harm co-exist across all three institutional domains, and in context, and should therefore be considered holistically.

Today, social work professions are recognized all over the world, and Ukraine is no exception. On the one hand, the process of recognizing the need for specialists capable of providing various social and social and pedagogical services in various spheres of life has begun not so long ago, and on the other hand, it is the positive trend and active organizational transformations of the educational and social sectors of public administration that lead to the modernization of the system.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper studies the incentive effects of social security benefits on labor market informality following a policy reform in Uruguay. The reform extended health benefits to dependent children of private sector salaried workers, and thus altered the incentive structure of holding formal jobs within the household. The identification strategy of the reform¿s effects relies on a comparison between workers with children (affected by the reform) and those without children (unaffected by the reform). Difference in differences estimates indicate a substantial effect of this expansion of coverage on informality rates, which fell significantly by about 1.3 percentage points (a 5 percent change) among workers in the treatment group with respect to those in the control group. The evidence also indicates that individuals within households jointly optimized their allocation of labor to the formal and informal sector. Workers responded to the increased incentives for only one member of the household to work in the formal sector. These findings provide evidence of the relevant and substantial incentive effects of social security benefits on the allocation of employment.

Abstract:
This work analyses the Nordic just green transition from the perspective of a set of target social groups, including unemployed persons and those at risk of unemployment, older adults, children and persons with disabilities. Based on a diverse literature review, comprising peer-reviewed academic papers, legal documents and unpublished reports, the report explores how climate mitigation policies may impact these social groups, both positively and negatively, and thereby sheds light on how such policies may contribute to a just green transition in a Nordic context.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper describes the research design for investigating and evaluating the Child Labour: Action-Research-Innovation in South and South-Eastern Asia (CLARISSA) social protection cash-plus intervention in a slum in Dhaka, Bangladesh. After an introductory section, the second section elaborates on contribution analysis – the methodological approach underpinning the research design. The third section provides an overview of the intervention, and the fourth explores the overall design of the evaluation, its guiding framework, and the timeline of the intervention rollout and data collection. The fifth and sixth sections address the project’s suite of quantitative and qualitative methods, and the approach to data analysis. Using four panel surveys, bi-monthly monitoring, in-depth interviews, group discussions and direct observations, the research will zoom in on specific behaviours. First, at the individual level, we want to learn how people adopt alternative livelihoods in response to the intervention. Second, at the household level, we consider how community mobilisation and cash transfers help households to resolve intra‑household problems. Third, at the group level, we consider how groups manage collective action in response to community mobilisation. For each of these behaviour change outcomes, we want to understand the realist evaluation question, ‘Why does the intervention work, for whom, and under what conditions?’ We also want to assess whether these new behaviours change the propensity for children to be involved in the worst forms of child labour.

Fabiani, Beatrice. Caring for Caregivers: The Landscape of Paid Care Work in Latin America and the Caribbean. Inter-American Development Bank, September 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0005147.

Full text
Abstract:
Paid care work will represent an important source of employment in coming decades, as care dependence becomes more prevalent, care needs evolve, and the structure of households changes. But there is little systematic data on the care economy for paid caregivers in Latin America and the Caribbean. This report aims to fill this knowledge gap by quantifying the paid care workforce in the region and describing its sociodemographic and economic profile in 17 countries. Using the most recent pre-pandemic microdata from labor and household surveys, the report examines the care economy for care workers who serve children and adults. The study concludes that there are approximately 8.9 million paid caregivers in the region, including 5.8 million paid workers who take care of children and 3.1 million who look after older people and people with disabilities. Most professionals in the sector are women in their early forties with a secondary-level education and with limited access to social protection benefits. This paper contributes to the ongoing discussion on paid and unpaid care work by emphasizing the importance of supporting a thriving workforce in the region while redistributing the burden of care in all dimensions of human life.

programme, CLARISSA. A Day in the Life of a Working Child in Dhaka, Bangladesh: A Synthesis of 25 Stories about Children’s Days. Institute of Development Studies, June 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/clarissa.2024.010.

Full text
Abstract:
This synthesis paper summarises patterns in the lived experience of 25 children in Hazaribagh, Dhaka who went about a typical day in their lives. Combining use of Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, a survey children completed via a mobile phone app, and ethnographic observations, children and adult researchers recorded locations, times of day, activities, and feelings. The paper brings into view the challenges that children in worst forms of child labour navigate before, after, and between work. The findings illustrate how children live in small worlds with adult concerns. We are able to see the range of responsibilities that they take on to provide for their families, and the poor treatment they receive from parents, supervisors, and people in the community, as they navigate their days. This is a confusing and lonely social landscape with little free time to spend relaxing in the company of their peers. Children find little respite from the excessively long hours that they work, the hot conditions, and the repetitive work. Many of the children endure constant discomfort, pain, hunger, heightened risks of accidents, sexual harassment, and violence. Poor home and neighbourhood environments amplify the levels of tiredness and risk. Yet in the details of all the varied and layered abuses and challenges the children navigate, we find clues for small improvements that may make a big difference to their daily lives.

Full text
Abstract:
This research and evidence paper presents a synthesis of the findings from the embedded theory-based evaluation of the CLARISSA programme. It is structured around the three main impact pathways of the programme. The evaluation found that the Systemic Action Research intervention led to participating children and business owners building agency, expanding power, and driving change in systems. An innovative Social Protection intervention in Bangladesh using unconditional and universal cash transfer with case work and community support was found to have potential to reduce children’s engagement with paid work. Child-led advocacy activities in Nepal were found to be effective in influencing decision makers, especially when children used evidence they had generated themselves through Action Research. The evaluation of CLARISSA’s ways of working found that consortium partnerships are not static entities but rather ones that move and change over time and require constant relational work and input to be sustained. Finally, the synergy created through using Participatory Action Research as an implementation modality as well as an approach to Adaptive Management led to empowerment and effective complexity‑aware programming.

Abstract:
Cocoa farming in West Africa has a long history of relying on family labour, including children’s labour. Increasingly, global concern is voiced about the hazardous nature of children’s work, without considering how it contributes to their social development. Using recent research, this paper maps out the tasks undertaken by boys and girls of different ages in Ghana and how their involvement in work considered hazardous has changed. We show that actions to decrease potential harm are increasingly difficult and identify new areas of inquiry.

Full text
Abstract:
What makes some children succeed despite studying in failing education systems? Are these children exceptionally gifted, or do other psychological or sociological factors and family circumstances contribute to success? To address the learning crisis in state schools in developing countries, development agencies have primarily focused on identifying inputs that can improve state education provision. Yet, even from low-performing state schools, some children do manage to successfully complete primary and secondary education cycles, pursue higher education, and record upward social mobility, but we know very little about the factors that facilitate this success. This paper addresses this gap in the literature. Tracing life histories of successful alumni of state schools supported by CARE, an education foundation in Pakistan, this paper identifies children’s motivation to succeed as having a major impact on educational performance. However, for most this motivation is not a product of an innate desire to excel, it is a product of contextual factors: parental encouragement; an acute desire to make parents happy and to alleviate their sufferings; the company of friends, cousins, and peers who are keen on education and thus help to create an aspiring, competitive spirit; encouragement given by good teachers; and exposure to new possibilities and role models that raise aspirations by showing that what might appear to the child unachievable is in fact attainable. High motivation in turn builds commitment to work hard. Equally important, however, is the provision of financial support at critical points, especially when transitioning from secondary school to college and university. Without financial support, which could be in the form of scholarships, loans, or income from part-time work, at critical junctures, even highly motivated children in state schools cannot succeed. The paper thus argues that rather than being focused solely on education inputs, development agencies should also seek to explore and understand the factors that can motivate children in state schools to aim high and work hard to succeed.
