The supply of social work practice placements: employers’ views
This report analyses the views of employers on the provision of practice placements for social work students.
It is based on the responses of 466 employers, who provided approximately a third of all placements in 2010-11. These employers made it clear that they value the experience of having students on placement in their organisation, and many make considerable efforts to ensure that they continue to be involved in provision of placements.
