Job description
You want to do work you’re proud of, and to know it matters.
Social work is a career with meaning, development and room to grow. If you’re looking for purpose and progression, this programme can help you build both.
About the programme
Approach Social Work is a fully funded training programme that helps you step into children’s social work with the training, tools and support to make a difference.
On the programme, you’ll develop a deep understanding of child-focused practice and how to build relationships that create real change. You’ll also explore anti-discriminatory, anti-oppressive and anti-racist approaches — and earn a master’s degree along the way.
The role:
You’ll learn how to build relationships, make difficult decisions and advocate for children’s safety and wellbeing.
That means:
- Visiting a child at home or school
- Supporting a parent through difficult circumstances
- Working with teachers, health professionals or police
- Writing reports and helping decide what’s safest for a child
It’s a role that takes empathy, resilience and strong judgement, rooted in anti-racist, anti-oppressive and anti-discriminatory practice.
Who we’re looking for
You don’t need experience in social work, just the right values, resilience and commitment to making a difference. We welcome applicants from all degree backgrounds and are especially keen to hear from those underrepresented in the sector, including men and people from racially diverse communities.
Eligibility requirements
- Have at least a 2.2 (predicted or obtained) in an undergraduate honours degree (or international equivalent)
- Have obtained GCSE English Language at Grade C/4 or above (or approved equivalent qualification)
- Possess the right to work and study in the UK (including access to public funds) for the duration of the programme (until September 2029)
- Be resident in England by the time the programme commences
- Not be a qualified social worker
Make your work something you’re proud of.
