Children's Social and Emotional Wellbeing in Schools
A Critical Perspective
"This is a significant and timely publication. The authors have created an insightful, scholarly analysis that challenges many of the 'assumed truths' of social and emotional wellbeing. Theory, research, policy and practice are examined through a critical lens and the result is an engaging, thought-provoking read." Neil Humphrey, University of Manchester "An in-depth analysis of terms that we all use, brilliantly explained. The reader is helped to understand the bigger picture of what we need to do to address children's social and emotional wellbeing in our schools." Mick Waters, Professor of Education, Wolverhampton University

This book challenges the concept of wellbeing as applied to children, particularly in a school-based context. Taking a post-structural approach, it suggests that wellbeing should be understood, and experiences revealed, at the level of the subjective child. This runs counter to contemporary accounts that reduce children's wellbeing to objective lists of things that are needed in order to live well. This book will be useful for academics and practitioners working directly with children, and anyone interested in children's wellbeing.
