Professional Capabilities Framework Independent Evaluation
Read the independent evaluation report into the Professional Capabilities Framework (PCF) and BASW's response.
The evaluation, led by Professor Jermaine Ravalier of Buckinghamshire New University and his team of researchers, considers what the PCF looks like compared to frameworks in other professions. It asks social workers their perceptions on whether the PCF is still fit for purpose and, if so, whether it needs to be changed or improved in any way.
Working with a steering group of sector representatives from social work and Experts by Experience of social work services, BASW has accepted and responded to the evaluation’s recommendations.
