Course content has been developed in collaboration with degree teaching teams, so that by the time you begin Year 1, you will be ready to excel at your studies, as the majority of our Foundation Year students do.

We will develop your understanding of the concept of social inclusion, the factors that lead to exclusion and the impact this may have on individuals, families and communities. At the same time, you will develop academic and professional standards, attributes, knowledge, skills and values, both as a current learner and future healthcare worker.

If you do not meet the requirements for direct entry into our BA (Hons) Social Work, our Foundation Year can provide an alternative route into your degree. This tab provides information relating to:
