The practice of welfare delivery and placement. During the selection process we shall look for evidence of your ability to work at an advanced level, for example the Access course in Social Work, as well as your suitability for professional social work training. Your local council or voluntary service or volunteer bureau will put you in touch with voluntary agencies in your area, or a local social services department or probation and aftercare office. The addresses of these organisations are available at your local library. Assessment Assessment in practice placements is continuous and culminates in the placement report, to which both student and practice teacher contribute.
Academic work is assessed through a range of assignments, with published submission dates.
These include tests, presentations, essays and revealed examinations. As there is no compensation between practice assessments and university assessment, both elements must be passed. Work Placements Work placements are an essential part of the course at Levels 2 and 3. The professional and academic elements of the course are strongly integrated. You must be able to attend the University and your placements between 9 am and 5 pm each day.
