Effective practice guide library

About our guides

Using examples of effective practice from within our core adult and youth inspections and the thematic programme, we have developed a range of effective practice guides and resources.

These materials are aimed at a range of audiences; they are intended to support practitioners, middle managers and strategic leaders to reflect on their own experiences and consider how they may apply the key learning points in their own contexts.

If you are a probation or youth justice practitioner, we would like to hear what you think of these materials, including any suggested improvements. Please send your ideas to Helen.Amor@hmiprobation.gov.uk (E-mail address).
