This shared learning experience contributes to developing team working skills and understanding the contribution different professionals make.

You spend 50 per cent of the course on work-based learning placements in a variety of statutory and voluntary sector settings, such as family centres, schools and health care. This is a crucial element of the course and provides opportunities for you to
• learn from skilled professionals
• to develop values, skills, knowledge and practice competence
• put into practice the theory you are taught in University

You are encouraged to develop and link theory and practice in order to support your continuing educational and professional development.

We normally base teaching in our modern, £13 million, purpose-built Robert Winston Building on the Collegiate Crescent Campus where you have access to our learning centre which combines PCs, library and media resources, a range of study spaces, and learner support.
