About the course

This Social Work MA is a two-year programme designed to enhance your knowledge of social work theories and their practical applications, fostering the development of a competent, reflective, and analytical practitioner. The course provides a master's degree and professional qualification recognised by Social Work England, delivered through diverse teaching methods by dedicated academics, experienced practitioners, service users, and specialists from various backgrounds. You will gain a solid grasp of theory in practice while undertaking two 100-day statutory placements in South Yorkshire, facilitated by partnerships with local authorities in areas like children’s services, adult care, and mental health.These placements are supported by university recall days and dedicated study time, allowing for deep reflection, peer discussions, and guidance from tutors. Upon completion, you will possess the skills to address contemporary social work challenges, contribute positively to vulnerable communities, and qualify for registration with Social Work England as a professional social worker.
