Social work is serious, life-changing business. It calls for good hearts and strong minds.<br><br>What do social workers do Where there’s a need, we’re there; wherever society is squeezed or stretched, we fill the gaps. From child protection to vulnerable adults, to the cost of living and the UK’s mental health crisis, it’s our job to find answers — for individuals, families, and whole communities. Social workers battle against discrimination, poverty, injustice, and inequality, and we earn victories every day. What’s more, we leave a lasting mark on the lives of those who need us.<br><br>It’s not always an easy job, but it is a deeply rewarding one. More than a career, it’s a calling. On this social work degree, we’ll deal in the real — the reality of practice, and of people. Prepare for an eye-opening, stereotype-busting journey of personal growth, as you explore the key issues, questions and processes, and emerge with the skills, knowledge and experience to be a professional social worker — someone who’s ready to make your own special difference to the world. Experience the real world of social work, with 170 days of practice placements included as standard.<br><br>We’ve built this course with care. What makes it so special is the range of voices feeding into what you’re taught — from students and teachers, to statutory bodies, to social work partners and employers. You’ll graduate with your finger on the pulse of modern practice.<br><br>Together, we’ll explore the big issues and trends that other social work degrees don’t — things like the ‘digitisation’ of the profession, from online assessments to maintaining contact with service users via text and WhatsApp. We’ll talk, share, and reflect — and in the process of doing that, your own opinions and ideas will start to shift. You’ll learn how to make sense of human behaviours, and explore people’s responses to trauma, loss, and tragedy; you’ll unpack your views around family and society, as your eyes open to brand-new ideas and perspectives; and you'll complete professional placements, getting to grips with key issues like ‘need’ and ‘risk’, and examining the different ways they’re managed.
