Blended Supervision Model Evaluation Relaunch

Tender description

As part of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions imposed by Government guidelines, Probation Practitioners (PPs) were required to work under the Exceptional Delivery Model (EDM). This resulted in rapid changes in practice with the majority of offices closing and staff working from home conducting sentence management supervision using a mix of office based and remote approaches. Learning from the experience of using alternative supervision methods, and the fact that this had become business as usual, led to consideration of how this experience might inform future delivery of supervision and what blend of techniques constitutes the best model.
