Would you work for an inadequate-rated children's services?

This episode is in collaboration with Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP).

In this episode Sharmeen Ziauddin, careers editor at Community Care, speaks to a number of social workers at BCP Council about its improvement journey and why working for an inadequate-rated children's services is not all bad!

Sharmeen speaks to Steph, Riauri, Jamie, Cyra and Monique talk about their experiences. Steph and Cyra talk about taking the leap from agency to becoming permanent members of staff and how that has allowed them more flexibility as well as career progression. Monique shares how she left to take a job in London but why she returned to BCP Council.
Jamie talks about his experience from ASYE to present day and all the brilliant support he's got. And Riauri explains why he has stuck around for five years and plans to stay put.
