Course summary

Social work is a regulated profession. The BSc Social Work degree leads to eligibility to apply to the Social Work England Register and practice as a social worker in England. An emphasis on small group practice prepares you for practice in a modern multi-professional workforce. Interactive learning in and out of the classroom will help you to understand concepts fully. Social workers help people find solutions to their problems and live more successfully in their communities. Sometimes this includes helping them confront and manage behaviours that put themselves and others at risk. To succeed, social workers must work not only with service users, but also with their service user’s families and friends, as well as other organisations including the police, NHS and schools. This course covers subjects such as law, partnership working, assessment and interventions, social science, mental health, disabilities, and families and children.On graduation you’ll be eligible to register as a social worker with Social Work England. You’ll also be qualified to work in the wide range of statutory, private and voluntary agencies that employ social workers.
