Introduction

This open-access CPD Guide has been written for any member of staff who has a responsibility for training and development within children’s social care organisations (for example, workforce development leads or Principal Social Workers). It sits alongside two other linked publications designed to be used together to support and promote defensible decision-making within children’s social care organisations.

This guide contains all the information you need to run three CPD sessions for practice supervisors using tools provided in Defensible decision-making in children’s social care - a resource pack for practice supervisors: Strategic Briefing (2022) which links with this.

If you share the resource pack with practice supervisors in your organisation, you can then follow this up by providing three (3.5-hour) half-day CPD sessions which allow you to:

  • introduce the resource pack and tools. Over the course of the three sessions, practice supervisors will work through five tools focusing on promoting defensible decision-making in supervision provided in the resource pack
  • connect with practice supervisors once they have had time to try out the resources to review their learning and identify any changes to their practice in relation to defensible decision-making
  • support practice supervisors to identify how they can continue to work on this area.

A third publication, Defensible decision-making in children’s social care - challenge questions for leaders: Leaders' Briefing (2022), is designed to be used alongside the CPD Guide and Resource Pack for Practice Supervisors.  See Related Content below.
