Effectiveness of and experiences with school focused interventions out-side of school settings for children and youth living in child welfare institutions - Protocol for a mixed-methods review
Project
|Updated
The purpose of this systematic review is to investigate the effects of and experiences with educational interventions conducted outside of schools for children and youth living in child welfare institutions.
Summary
To complete and do well at primary and secondary education is very important for a child’s future health and economic status. Children and youth living in child welfare institutions are one of society’s most vulnerable groups, and on average have worse school outcomes compared with children who are not in institutional care. The purpose of this systematic review is to investigate the effects of and experiences with educational interventions conducted outside of schools for children and youth living in child welfare institutions.
To identify relevant studies, a librarian will search in international databases for studies published between 2010 and June 2021. We will use both manual and machine learning processes to screen studies against our inclusion criteria. Thereafter, we will extract and analyse the data from the included studies and appraise their methodological quality with appropriate tools and checklists. Finally, we will present our findings in summary of findings tables where we will also present our confidence in the findings. The combined results will be presented and published in a report.
