Reflective practice is at the heart of probation training and the continuing professional development of practitioners. This edited collection provides practitioners with an opportunity to explore and develop their own reflective practice, considering diversity and organisational challenges, with real-world examples of reflection in the probation context.

In addition to probation specialists, its contributors include those from prison, third-sector organisations, and mental health perspectives to consider probation practice in different settings. Each chapter provides prompts for reflective development, so its ideas can be immediately applied in practice. It will equip the reader to develop their reflective practice skills, regardless of their level of experience.

Reflections on Probation encourages readers to engage thoughtfully with their work and offers tools to enhance professional growth and understanding in various environments.
