Join us for the first of 3 FREE joint webinars hosted by the BASW England Norfolk Branch in partnership with the BASW Children and Families group.
The latest report from the National Child Safeguarding Review Panel was published on 11 March 2025. “It’s Silent”: Race, racism and safeguarding children. This report was undertaken on behalf of the Panel by Jahnine Davis and the VKPP Data Insights Team with support from the Panel member subgroup.
Many students and Newly Qualified Social Workers report to BASW that they are experiencing prejudice and discrimination in practice placements and their ASYEs, telling us that they find it difficult to address these issues as they fear this may reduce the likelihood of passing their placements or ASYE.
This webinar, led by BASW England’s Student and NQSW Thematic Group will:
• Hear from current and recent students about their experiences
• Hear from Professor Carlene Cornish about her research in this area
This interactive workshop will be chaired by BASW member Valerie Chopamba. We’ll explore how BASW members and student members have used our new Shades of Bias tool and reflect together on how it can be applied to different forms of discrimination in the workplace and in education.

Join BASW members for an opportunity to spotlight and celebrate the varied and diverse roles that social workers undertake in communities, which play a key part in the prevention agenda.
We know that the prevention agenda is often referred to in terms of models which divert people from needing statutory services local authority services or NHS services, but today’s session will explore so much more than that.
Join us for this year’s flagship SASW Conference, bringing together social workers, students, educators, and policymakers from across Scotland and beyond to reflect, share, and create change.
