Just look at residential homes for disabled or elderly people. They are full of individuals with no pedagogical training, just staff who feed residents, wash them, and put them to bed. Most of them earn the national minimum wage and may have received basic nursing training. On the continent, you have all sorts of pedagogues and therapists around those residential homes. Granted, some residential homes for elderly people do lack qualified staff. Now they think social workers, who have gone through three years of study and one assessed year, should be replaced by whom? Joe Average from around the corner? Yes, there are many in social care who, for one reason or another, have not been able to complete a degree but are very experienced and would indeed do a great job. Instead of helping them progress in their careers and allowing them to upskill, they are now being told it’s okay, we don’t need you to know more. Basic knowledge is just fine because we don’t need to pay you more. Who cares whether a family receives good service as long as the costs are low? Well, in the long run, it will cost the service and the country more if you continue to cut quality support at this level and think you can get away with the bare minimum.

Social work isn’t surgery and it’s strange to equate it with a skilled medical role. Less assumed “knowledge” and more promotion of “experience” I say. The arrogance cloak self affirming the virtues of social work uncritically no longer impresses this social worker. What’s the length and content of social work training compared to medical training again?

There are unqualified colleagues with experience, but lack the knowledge. It’s a short term cost effective measure, that will bear huge costs in the long term, not to mention the human cost and impact, that could well be catastrophic.
See how Early help is not working, precisely for that reason.
You wouldn’t want a hospital assistant performing major surgery on you!!!!
