The intension of this study is to investigate the interaction between teachers and social workers in two diffrent countys. The study is focused on how teachers act upon suspicions when there are children at risk and what kind of support the teacher gets from social workers.

If the social worker want to help the teacher and give her advice, the social worker can do that without breaking confidentiality.
