Peer reflection: Recording CPD with Social Work England
Peer reflection: Recording CPD with Social Work England
Peer reflection means having a conversation with another professional about something you have learnt in a way that changes your practice. Many social workers will already be having these conversations in different ways, for example:
-
informal conversations with colleagues in the office
-
supervision with a manager
-
group supervision
-
reflective team meetings
-
discussion groups as part of an event or learning day.
All registered social workers practicing in England need to record peer reflection annually with Social Work England as part of their CPD record. Join this session to explore what peer reflection is, and to take part in peer reflection about a Research in Practice resource.

CPD recording, registration and regulation
Our learning resources support you to use evidence and to develop in your role. If you have a Research in Practice account you can easily keep a record of your continuing professional development (CPD).
Understanding peer reflection and CPD
As part of their annual registration renewal with Social Work England, social workers need to upload a minimum of two different pieces of CPD. This blog outlines key information on peer reflection to support social workers.
