SC20033 - Step up to Social Work Programme

Tender description

Kent County Council, acting on behalf of the Kent & Medway Regional Partnership (KMRP) have been successful in a bid to receive a grant from the Department for Education (DfE). The Step Up to Social Work programme provides an accelerated entry route into social work for high-achieving graduates and career changers. It targets high calibre individuals who already have experience of working with children and young people and who want to train as social workers. Subject to securing the funding from DfE, The Council needs to tender for an organisation to deliver the Step Up to Social Work programme, with the emphasis on ensuring the programme is well embedded within the employer base and prepares children's social workers well for the task of statutory children's social work.
