Abstract

Many children in Wales who are labeled "looked-after" cannot do as well as those not in care in terms of study. Although an increasing number of studies show the educational disadvantage among children and young people in care can be a factor, some researchers intend to study the impact of being regarded as "in care" on LACYP's educational outcomes by interpreting the feelings as well as thoughts of the participants. This essay will discuss the research paradigm of this study and its several components including ontology, epistemology, methodology and methods in detail. Besides, the strengths and weaknesses around how the research was conducted will be evaluated based on the criteria of credibility, dependability, transferability and confirmability. These criteria proposed by Guba & Lincoln are considered to be suitable for evaluating truthfulness in qualitative research.
