Abstract
This paper documents student appraisals of a Family Therapy Practice Module and allows for students’ reflective accounts to speak for themselves. The analysis aids in informing competent practice and programme content of the module, which constantly changes in shape and form. This module, like many others in institutions of higher learning, will be subjected to a quality assurance review exercise by not only our discipline of social work but also through an institutional audit. Our institution’s quality assurance committee will review and assess this module to determine its sustainability, academic coherence and viability. Arguably this module will be scrutinised for any limitations, and possibilities will be advanced for future consideration. Moreover students’ assessment of the module is an integral and necessary step of the evaluation process. We propose that these responses will authenticate the need for its continued existence.
