About this course


This part-time, evening course is designed for mature students who want to access university. It is the equivalent of three A levels, completed in one academic year. It is an intensive programme but will assist you with study skills, confidence building and applying for university. Your learning will take place alongside like-minded people in a supportive environment with experienced, friendly tutors.

Social work and social science are exciting subject areas. The social sciences focus on human behaviour such as; why do we do the things we do? What do we value as individuals and as a society? What motivates us?
