Regulatory standards and data

We collect data about our regulatory standards including about ‘how’ we regulate registered social workers and social care. This is an important part of showing the role the Social Care Council plays supporting education and training, and where it is required to protect the public when they raise a concern through our Fitness to Practise process.

On our publications and media page you will find reports including:

Social Care Practitioners Fitness to Practise Referrals Analysis 2012-2022.

Social work education and training accountability reports.

Review of the Degree in Social Work.
