BA (Hons) Working with Children & Families Top-Up

... United Kingdom
... South and City College Birmingham

Course Overview

The aim of the Top-up degree in Working with Children and Families is to extend students' knowledge and skills to Level 6 studies to become reflective, resilient practitioners, who can adapt to the demands of the youth and community sector in England, with a global perspective.

Students will focus on and demonstrate the values that underpin the sector of partnership, social justice, community empowerment and equality. Students will develop skills that will enable them to be responsive to the changes in the sector and develop as reflective practitioners and future managers or leaders. Placement practice is not a requirement on this course, but students may have to reflect on prior knowledge and experience while completing the course.

The programme will focus on contemporary issues and practices within the sector, enabling students to gain an understanding of, and the capacity to apply and integrate, theoretical frameworks and key concepts relevant to practice in Working with Children and Families. Students will develop subject skills to enable analysis of relevant concepts, theories and issues of policy, and their use in informing evidence-based practice to enable informed judgements on complex ethical and professional issues. Generic graduate skills such as developing communication, organisation and analytical skills will also be supported on the programme.
