Working with Children & Young People: Social Pedagogy BA(Hons) single honours

This course is aimed at those wanting to work with children, young people and their families. It blends theory and practice so you will have the opportunity to undertake two work placements, with our partner organisations, during your degree. These could be in settings such as youth justice, early intervention teams, health services, schools, children's centres and in youth mentoring so you'll be able to investigate which area you like best.

During your three years you will benefit from the expertise of lecturers and professionals from a number of different disciplines. When you graduate, you'll be well-positioned for careers or further study in areas such as education, social work, nursing, early years and youth services.

You will be encouraged to explore different ways of working through creative workshops, whilst developing your employability skills. Your research skills and creative abilities will be developed to produce exciting ideas to benefit children, young people and their families.

When you enter the workforce, after graduating from this course, your study and placement experience will have prepared you for effective interprofessional working with children and young people in a variety of settings.

This course is also an excellent preparation for study at postgraduate level on professional courses, such as social work, teaching, and nursing.
