Course Overview

The UK's unique course offers a Masters-level award, specifically in residential child care. It has been developed to support the development of direct practice and leadership in Scotland's residential childcare sector and beyond.

Consensus is growing that residential childcare practice is complex, challenging and requires requisite workforce knowledge, skills and capacities. Suppose children and young people are to have positive care experiences which improve their life chances. In that case, those who care for them, and those who support those who care for them, must be kept in developing and maintaining that knowledge.

The MSc in Advanced Residential Child Care has been developed within the School of Social Work and Social Policy alongside the Centre for Excellence for Children’s Care & Protection to support the development of direct practice and leadership in Scotland's residential childcare sector and beyond.

By taking this course, you can expect to experience development in your knowledge, skills and relational capacities in practice. You can also expect to contribute to professional leadership, practice development, research, and evaluation in your agency and possibly beyond.

General Eligibility

Academic requirements/experience

Degree (minimum 360 SCQF credit points) or equivalent qualifications and experience.

Applicants with HNC/SVQ3/SVQ4 qualifications will be asked to provide a supporting written assignment.

Those with professional or academic qualifications other than social work will be considered.

Applicants must work full-time in residential child care or a closely related area, as all the coursework requires students to apply their learning to their practice and the practices in their employing organisation.

For some years now, there have been considerably more suitably qualified applicants than there are places on the course. Our decisions about who to offer classes to are based on all the information in your application, including your current and previous work experience and your educational and training qualifications, but also the content of your statement and your attention to detail in the application overall.

Part Time Work Details

20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.
