Course Summary

**Overview** Child and family services have experienced rapid and substantial changes in recent years, both structurally and financially. This course prepares you to thrive in this challenging environment and adapt to the diverse needs of children, young people and families. Through an innovative blend of personal reflection, online activity, face-to-face teaching and practice placements, you will become a confident practitioner in family support and children's and young people's welfare. Our programme is offered through the flexible-and-distributed learning (FDL) route. This integrates independent engagement with regular online learning activities, attendance at Saturday face-to-face workshops and authentic workplace experience. The FDL route is designed to fulfill a balance of work, life and study. It also means that it is not necessary to arrange student accommodation on campus and instead you can study from home. **Key features** - Offered through the flexible-and-distributed learning (FDL) route. - Benefit from the opportunity to study from home. - The course can be taken full-time over two years or part-time over three years. - There are no exams - you'll be assessed by assignments such as group and individual presentations, report writing and reflective essays. - You can apply for tuition fee loans to cover the cost of the degree if you fulfil the appropriate criteria (for more information, please visit our Undergraduate Loans page). **Learn more about the course at our Open Days** Visiting us is the best way to get a feel for student life at the University of Worcester.
