Discover how Bradford College’s Social Work program can kickstart your career and help you create positive change in the community
Every day in social work is different. You’ll be out there helping people in all sorts of places like hospitals, schools, and even prisons. It’s a job that really matters, especially if you care about social justice and want to make a real difference in people’s lives.
The skills you’ll learn are super valuable. You’ll gain knowledge, emotional intelligence, and the ability to analyze situations. Plus, you’ll be working with various agencies to tackle tough issues. And let’s not forget, the average salary for a full-time social worker is around £38,000, which isn’t too shabby!
There’s always a need for social workers, especially now with the rising cost of living and mental health challenges. You could be the person who brings hope to someone in need.
In 2024, Bradford College’s program got the green light from Social Work England after a thorough inspection. This means they meet all the important standards for training social workers. It’s the only Further Education provider in Yorkshire with this recognition, which is pretty impressive.
The course mixes hands-on learning with real-world placements, so you’re not just stuck in a classroom. You’ll learn from experienced staff and get support from local agencies and people who have been through similar experiences.
