I started Tameside as an agency worker and enjoyed it that much I became permanent almost 12 months ago. Yes I have seen several changes in management and the case loads increasing, however I can also see a firm direction that we are taking. People need to beleive that together we can make Tameside ‘Good’ again. I do agree with John regarding agency workers leaving with cases a mess, I beleive they should be reported to the HCPC and their next employer informed.

This article saddens me but is accurate. I have worked there for a number of years. The management oversight reflects a much wider picture than practice manger/team manager level. There was little investment in teams for long term looked after children or care leavers despite the original Ofsted.Most of the interim/agency are at senior level and it is their decisions that have affected the progress of Tameside. There are some fantastic , committed agency staff that have invested heavily in Tameside – so thank you. Tameside will come out of this but need staff that commit whether they are agency or permanent.

In reply to Erin. Erin, I applaud you moving away from Social Work. I have worked in frontline CP SW for almost 21 years now, and I cannot do it anymore. I'm burnt out physically and emotionally, and this type of work is not healthy, it's harmful, punitive and blaming I am glad you got out; I handed in my two-month notice, and am looking forward to a CP free future and getting my life back. Anyone thinking of getting into CP work; don't if you value your life, and personal time, as you won't have any in a CP role.

I work in a ofsted rated good authority . There are some poor managers and poor practice that goes unchallenged. The senior leadership team tweet constantly about how good they are. Tome burning whilst Nero is fiddling comes to
Mind!

In reply to Joanna Thomas. Exactly. I held 43 cases in a north west authority A mix of CP and court work. In supervision I advised that i could not manage the volume of work and the risk and was made to feel inadequate The toxic environment and working conditions became unbearable and to protect myself I left and noved away entirely from social work. My advice to others, get out , its just not worth it.

Case loads of 18.5? I was expected to hold 45 cases in one authority mentioned! 6 visits/meetings a day was the norm, and expected to write them all up, arrange and attend core groups; write court reports, conference reports and it went on and on. What support? none, just blame.

It is no surprise that workers are leaving local authority as there is nil support; in fact there is punitive and inhumane approach of blaming and reporting the workers to hcpc, complete destroying their career.
Why would anyone wish to remain with the local authority that expects the workers to be a robot, to get on with the work and local authority having no obligation of care and support to the workers – none.
Taking into consideration the hcpc decision/sanctions, why would anyone wish to work for local authorities, like Lincolnshire, Manchester, Nottinghamshire and many others that blame workers but are defensive and protective of their management.
Social work is completely failing its workers; are we deluded in believing it is doing any different to the families they are serving.

This is exactly how it is, i came from agency to permanent and its an impossible job now. Some agency workers come in do little find in too tough and then go leaving a mess behind them. They need reporting to the HCPC. All local authorities should look at what their offering in respect in workload training and support. No wonder the profession is in crisis. And why let socisl workers with under 2 years experience join agencies, better policing required.

I have just joined Tameside this year and love it, Colleagues are amazing and hope my 2 year contract is extended, yes there are issues but with the right management Team and the right support for SW’s and more recruitment of the right people Tameside will come through the other side of this and look forward to it.
