Tender for Provision of Practice Supervision Support Services

Description

Oberstown Children Detention Campus is seeking to appoint a provider for an initial contract to deliver 100 hours of train the trainer to the internal supervisor responsible for campus-wide supervision delivery. This support will take the form of formative supervision within a train-the-trainer framework, enabling the supervisor to continue delivering high-quality group and individual supervision. The purpose of this input is to consolidate and build on the existing model, support quality assurance, and respond to emerging learning and challenges in practice. The provider should have expertise in developmental and reflective supervision models, with particular relevance to systemic and relational practice, e.g. the Seven-Eyed Model. It is anticipated that additional requirements under this framework agreement will be for the following types of contracts: • Adaptations/enhancements to the proposed model for individual and group delivery with applicability within the Seven-Eyed Model framework. • Delivery of a train-the-trainer adaptation of the model to build internal capacity and future-proof delivery across Campus. • Review and update of the supervision resource pack, including agreements, templates, guidance documents, and FAQ materials to ensure alignment with current practice. • Delivery of future courses in a public setting to enable on boarding of staff who may have missed initial training due to leave or unforeseen circumstances. • Alignment with performance management structures and delivery of orientation training to managers to distinguish between practice supervision and performance oversight. • Support for integration with wider organisational learning and development frameworks, ensuring that supervision is linked to other objectives such as trauma-informed care, reflective practice, and staff wellbeing. • Ongoing feedback and consultation loops with the campus to support responsive adaptations to content, format, or delivery as needed. • Quality assurance mechanisms to support fidelity to the model, including reflective forums, observation, or peer learning options where appropriate. • Design and delivery of a continuing professional development resource and support focused on continuing professional development and reflective practice requirements as set out by Corú.
