Meeting ID: 390 060 089 232
Passcode: a6Qo5P

• The South Glos. Practice fundamentals have been developed to reflect the changes that we need to build on as part of our Improvement plan.

• They support our practice by encouraging consistency and making organisational expectations clear.

• The delivery method is new, each module is only 90 minutes long and is content light and practice heavy- with a space to reflect built into the session. It’s about learning from one another.

• This isn’t about templates- it’s about the principles of good quality practice and how we can evidence and show our thinking, understanding and impact of our professional intervention effectively.

• There will be a rolling programme of modules on offer throughout September and October delivered via Teams .

• They are open to all practitioners, including social workers, team managers, personal advisors and social work assistants.

• The two modules will cover Purposeful visits and Child SMART planning. This is because we understand ourselves well enough to know we need to make further improvement in these areas.

• After attendance and completion of the feedback form, you will receive a certificate. This can support your CPD.
