The findings are revealed in the latest issue of Children in Europe, a bi-annual collaborative journal by a network of national organisations from eight European countries, edited by Peter Moss, professor of early childhood education at the University of London's Institute of Education.
These organisations include Children in Scotland, the lead agency for children's organisations in Scotland, which works in partnership with the National Children's Bureau and Children in Wales.
Professor Moss said, 'Increasing demand for school-age childcare and more school-age childcare in schools is raising questions about the future of the school. Will the traditional school be unchanged? Or will it evolve to become a multi-functional service, with new ways of working with children, new types of workers and new ideas about learning and knowledge? This issue of Children in Europe takes us to the heart of these debates in Europe.'
