Decision: Salford City Council - Record of Decision
I Paul Dennett, City Mayor, in exercise of the powers contained within the Council Constitution do hereby approve the award of the following contract for the delivery of Step Up to Social Work programme;
The Reasons are that Salford Council acts as lead for the Greater Manchester Regional Partnership. On behalf of the partnership Salford City Council also holds the contract for the academic input which allows the award of Postgraduate Diploma in social work to be made to candidates – thus allowing them to be registered with Social Work England (SWE) and become practicing social workers.
Assessment of Risk: Step Up to Social Work is assisting Children Services in all 10 participating Local Authorities to meet their social work staffing requirements. This is achieved by providing high quality staff able to ‘hit the ground running’. As a tailored children and families training programme, it allows trainees to work towards a Postgraduate Diploma in social work, alongside intensive hands-on experience. Failure to participate has an impact on the recruitment strategy of social workers.
The source of funding is 100% grant funded through the DfE. Legal Advice has been obtained. Financial Advice has been obtained. Procurement Advice has been obtained. HR Advice has been obtained Climate Change Implications have been obtained Telephone number: 0161 607 7174
