Social Workers: Home Visits (2 June 2023)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the average duration of a social work visit was in each of the last five years.

Asked by:
Esther McVey (Conservative)

Answer

​​The department does not hold data on the number of child and family social worker visits carried out in person or online in each of the last five years, the average duration of a social worker visit in each of the last five years, or where child and family social workers live.

Social workers provide information about their home and work locations to Social Work England when they join the professional register, and when they renew their registration each year. This information is not verified by Social Work England.
