Development programmes
Leaders can now access self-study social work leadership modules developed in collaboration with the Frontline organisation. These modules are tailored to four levels of leadership:
- practice supervisors
- middle managers
- heads of service
- practice leaders
This will support continuing professional development (CPD).
The original Pathways Leadership programme was funded by the Department for Education and delivered by Frontline between autumn 2022 and summer 2024.
Roles
Senior practitioners manage complex cases, provide quality assurance and support less experienced social workers.
Practice supervisors support the practice and decision-making of social workers and develop their skills as individuals and teams.
