Supported Year Overview
This page should provide an overview of the Supported Year process in Falkirk. If there’s any further information you wish to discuss, or need accessible versions of these materials, please contact the Social Work Workforce Development Team via socialservices.training@falkirk.gov.uk.
As of 3rd June 2024, the SSSC’s Continuous Professional Learning requirements changed. For some of our NQSWs this meant that they no longer completed the Record of Achievement under the PRTL framework and now moved over to the Supported Year framework. For all NQSWs who have registered from October 2024 onwards they will be on the Supported Year framework.
If a NQSW needs support to Register as a Social Worker with the SSSC they should see the Applying for Registration with the SSSC guidance on the Recruitment, Induction and Retention section of the Practitioner’s Pages.
Please access the Implementation section of the SSSCs NQSW Website for the original templates for each NQSWs portfolio.
