Social Work BSc (Hons)

Social work is both a profession and an academic discipline that commits to social justice and human rights by supporting those in need.<br/><br/>It is a vital and rewarding field of work that puts you in direct contact with often vulnerable and marginalised individuals, giving you a chance to make a significant difference to their lives.<br/><br/>The course has been approved by Social Work England – the regulatory body for social work training. Youll need to demonstrate Social Work Englands Professional Standards within your practice, alongside the expectations specified by the Professional Capabilities Framework (PCF) held by the British Association of Social Workers (BASW).<br/><br/>Completion of the degree programme leads to a generic social work qualification, which then allows you to specialise in a particular area of practice. It also allows you to apply to Social Work England for registration as a social worker.<br/><br/>This degree is run in partnership with local agencies including Brighton & Hove City Council, East Sussex County Council and West Sussex County Council, as well as with carers and service users.
