National Occupational Standards for beginning Social Workers

These standards will be completed by the end of January to enable them to be revised and to go through their final TOPSS committee stages before being finalised by May 2002. 

The standards as developed have focused on a beginning social worker who will have completed the new social work qualification.
Any observations or comments for consideration in ADSS's last feedback to the consultants should be sent to mike_campbell@bristol-city.gov.uk
