Childrens Social Work at Lincolnshire County Council
Our Childrens Social Work teams are amongst the absolute best in the country. We have an overall Outstanding rating from Ofsted and in our recent inspection in April 2023 we maintained this judgement which we are very proud of. We are not about to let up on our progress and development though As an organisation we are extremely proud of the work our teams undertake and this pride shines through from every member of the teams.
Our practice model is "Signs of Safety" and this is underpinned by a firm commitment to restorative practice, working in a way where the strengths of the family and their network are honoured and families are supported to develop their own solutions. Most importantly, we believe the voice of the child should be at the very heart of every plan.
We believe that all Disabled Children matter. Based in the modern Sleaford Offices, our CWD team supports children and young people who have severe and profound disabilities. Our team work closely with our partner agencies (including special schools, continuing health care, CAMHS, community nursing teams, our SEND team colleagues and our own dedicated Occupational Therapy team) to help improve the outcomes of children's lives. Our Social Workers have manageable caseloads and work with children and families on a long term basis.
About the Role of a Level 2 Social Worker
As a Level 2 Social Worker you will be responsible for assessing social care needs, support planning and reviewing packages of care. You'll use your specialist knowledge and experience to manage a range of more complex cases, leading on these from start to finish meaning children and families have consistency of Social Worker.
There will also be the opportunity within the role to mentor less experienced staff and to support and take the lead with students on placement in the teams.
About Our Offer
We know that being a Social Worker can be challenging and often emotional but, we also know from experience that it's a very rewarding career. This is why you will be surrounded by a supportive, caring and compassionate team.
You will receive monthly formal professional and case supervision, and take part in monthly group learning and team meetings with an annual team development day too. Our managers are always on hand and our practitioners say that the informal, ad hoc supervision they receive, plus the support they get from colleagues to test out their thinking, is absolutely invaluable.
Your continued professional development will be as important to us as it is to you, and your learning and development will remain in focus, not just during your annual appraisal. Our offer of complimentary access to the Research in Practice online platform further demonstrates this. Alongside our excellent in-house training offer, you will also have the opportunity to complete fully funded PQ modules.
Along with a competitive salary we also offer;
