RT Article T1 Probation staff supervision: Valuing ‘me time’ within congested spaces JF Probation journal VO 67 IS 3 SP 228 OP 245 A1 Coley, David LA English YR 2020 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1761903942 AB Probation staff supervision is an established professional practice tool, documented historically through the lens of the Probation Journal. This article charts Journal discussions surrounding staff supervision and places them alongside a recent research study examining current practice.

More broadly, competing views resound within a landscape of looming professional registration and associated requirements of continuous professional development.
