Milton Keynes Council

I got so much more from this workshop than expected, the role plays were brilliant (as someone who hates role play) and I really enjoyed the whole experience.

Louise Purser MBE

Practise Educator

Central Bedfordshire County Council

Thank you for your brilliant contribution- your characterisation of the young person was accurate and the feedback you gave was informative and rooted in social work values, enabling us to effectively observe and assess our candidates.

Sophie Marshall

Practice Educator

Milton Keynes Council

The actors took the task seriously, - considered, reflected and discussed the issues with us and each other and fully engaged with their role. It was a very positive experience for us and provided an excellent way of assessing candidates' potential for social work training

Social Worker

Milton Keynes Council

Really fun and interesting way to develop social work skills and aid reflection of practice during role plays. Developed communication skills and challenged me to consider how I engage young people and my overall approach with the type of questions that I ask.
