The Children’s Act forms an integral part of the reforming legislation of the Liberal Governments of 1906-1914, introducing the youth court system and shaping British youth policy for the next century.

The aim of this two-day conference is to bring together new and established researchers from a range of disciplines to reflect upon the historical impact of the Act whilst engaging with its resonance for contemporary practitioners.
