The Department for Education awarded a contract to a consortium of KPMG LLP, LEO Learning, and Morning Lane Associates for the development of an assessment and accreditation system for three new statuses in child and family social work.
The project involved designing transparent, evidence-based pass/fail processes for Approved Child and Family Practitioner (ACFP) status, Practice Supervision status, and Practice Leadership status, along with developing knowledge and skills statements for the latter two.
It included a critical review of direct observation methods and digital solutions, and devising processes to test the assessments with social workers at various career stages.
The contract value was £2,055,534.
