Journal of Social Work Practice

Abstract This paper discusses the use of systemic ideas in shaping and informing an approach to teaching social work students on a qualifying social work programme in a UK university setting. The context of contemporary social work training and the primacy it gives to practice experience and service user and carers' perspectives will be explained, in part to remind us that service users want their practitioners to be competent, even ‘expert’ at using relationship in their work. From here an argument will be developed for revisiting systemic ideas in social work, the suggestion being that systemic thinking can actively promote a relationship‐based approach suited to the modern context of practice that seeks to move beyond a potentially limiting, ‘procedure‐led’ or ‘surface’ approach. We will give an outline of and rationale for the curriculum followed by the module in question and will suggest that its focus on systemic approaches in dialogue with other theory perspectives is a creative one; one which enables an exploration of many of the issues of concern in contemporary social work practice, from working with individuals and their families through to the wider community level of practice. Findings from a student evaluation of the module are presented to illustrate that drawing on this particular area of theory has something positive to contribute to training resilient, competent social workers, aware of the importance of relationship in their practice.

‘GETTING TO THE ROOT OF PROBLEMS’: THE ROLE OF SYSTEMIC IDEAS IN HELPING SOCIAL WORK STUDENTS TO DEVELOP RELATIONSHIP‐BASED PRACTICE

“深入问题根源”：系统性理念在帮助社会工作学生发展关系型实践中的作用

Abstract Abstract Relationships with the users of social work are increasingly seen in procedural, legal and administrative terms. However, research studies examining both client satisfaction and intervention effectiveness regularly find that the psychosocial qualities of the worker-client relationship are a major component in the success or otherwise of the service offered. The case is made that the psychological selves of both practitioners and users acquire many of their characteristics, including personality, esteem, efficacy and defensive behaviours, within relationships throughout the lifespan. The level of social understanding and social competence that people develop depends on the quality of their relationship history. If poor relationships are where psychosocial competences go awry, then good relationships are where they are likely to recover. This observation has major implications for the quality, character and skill of the relationship experiences offered to clients by social workers
