Abstract
Historically reflective supervision occupied a central place in the development and culture of social work in England. In recent years, there has been widespread concern that the reflective component of supervision has been dwindling under the impact of managerialism and there have been calls for it to be reinstated. Such calls have met with little success. An exception to this general trend has been the instigation of reflective supervision for newly qualified social workers (NQSWs) in some local authorities. This article describes the experience of separating professional supervision from line management supervision for NQSWs in one English local authority. This example demonstrates that it is possible to reclaim reflective supervision, even in a context in which e-supervision is dominant.
