These skills include presentation, oral and written communication, the ability to work independently and deal with complex and challenging situations, advocacy and empathy, teamwork and the ability to understand and work with people from all backgrounds.

General Eligibility

96 UCAS points. Any subjects are acceptable at Level 3. You should also have five GCSEs at grade C or above or grade 4 to 9 (or equivalent) in English and Mathematics. For this endorsed pathway, you'll need to provide evidence that you've completed at least 100 hours work experience, either working with young people, or in a youth work or community practice setting. You'll be required to attend an interview as part of the application process.

You'll be expected to attend a face-to-face interview and undertake a written assessment. If you don't meet the above entry requirements, and would benefit from preparatory study, you may wish to consider our BA (Hons) Community Development and Youth Work with Foundation degree.
