OverviewFIVE STAR AMAZON REVIEW for the first edition: “Brilliant book, was really helpful in my studies and am sure it will continue to be of help. Small so easy to carry around but still lots of good information inside.” Report writing is a key skill for social work and one in which many practitioners receive little formal training or preparation. Fully revised and updated, the new edition of this handy pocketbook for social workers provides key advice for busy practitioners to help them to write clear, professional and well-structured reports. This includes practical advice, hints and tips to improve your report writing and ensure you adhere to best practice in your written communications.

This useful book includes: • A range of report templates for a variety of situations, practice contexts and service user groups • Examples of good practice in report writing and common pitfalls to avoid • Examples of legal policy and assessment situations • Checklists of content and style requirements for various report types.
