We the undersigned social work educators, professionals and concerned citizens, lament the absence of a statutory or even recommended staff/student ratio for social work training. We note that recommended staff/student ratios are seen as key to successful professional education in related disciplines such as clinical psychology , nursing and the allied health professions. We call on the Secretary of State and on the General Social Care Council to set and disseminate a recommendation in this respect to put social work training on the same footing as related disciplines.
