This data is from the Department for Educations Children's social work workforce release.

The release provides information about children and family social workers and agency social workers employed in local authorities.

The information is based on data collected in an annual census from local authorities in England. The latest collection covers the year from 1 October 2020 to 30 September 2021.
Children and family social workers are social workers registered with Social Work England (SWE) working in a local authority in a children’s services department or, if working in an authority where the services are joined up, a social worker that works primarily on children and families work. Figures are shown on both a full-time equivalent (FTE) and headcount basis.

This Metric is the Number of children and family social workers aged 60 years old and over (FTE)

Full-time Equivalent (FTE) figures are calculated by aggregating the total number of hours that social workers are contracted to work and dividing by the standard hours for their grade. FTE figures exclude social workers for whom FTE information was missing or not known.
