To make the review as wide-ranging as possible, contributions are requested from all perspectives of social work, including those from young people, frontline social workers, health visitors, teachers, police officers and leaders of local services.
Munro is particularly interested to see examples of strategies for shared learning, improving transparency in local safeguarding services and strategies for making clear the accountability of social workers. The evidence gathering aims to open up understanding of new practices in social work, how they were made possible and how any challenges were overcome.
The review will build on Lord Laming's Progress Report from March 2009, analysis by the Social Work Task Force and the work of the Social Work Reform Board. Munro's final report, due to be published in April 2011, will be critical to the government's proposed reform of frontline social work.
