There has never been a more exciting time to join our service. In this role, you will be part of our innovative and forward-thinking Fostering Service. We are an ambitious and aspirational service. We are looking for a fostering practitioner that has an interest in ensuring that our foster carers and children are appropriately supported to ensure stability for our children.

The successful applicant will be responsible for supporting foster carers in a variety of ways by using therapeutic parenting techniques and modelling PACE when working with them. The role will include direct one to one support and group support to foster carers and will be required to provide written reports on the support they have offered. finding families for our children to live when they cant be cared for by their family.

The successful applicant should have a skill to develop a strong and robust direct working relationship with all internal foster carers in order to understand their individual needs and provide the right support at the right time for them. The Fostering Services’ model of care is Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP) and as a minimum there must be a commitment to achieve a level 1 in DDP.

Here at Telford and Wrekin Council, we have been judged to be outstanding overall in terms of effectiveness (the only Authority in the West Midlands with this judgement). Here’s just some of the great things Ofsted had to say when they visited us in 2024:

children in care benefit from living in supportive permanent foster care homes which enable them to thrive both at home and at school or college
where children have a plan of long-term fostering, social workers focus on securing permanence for them through matching with foster carers; children are cared for by foster carers who are appropriately skilled and fully supported to meet their individual needs
the quality of fostering assessments is strong; foster carers are supported well and there is a comprehensive training offer for foster carers
