BA (Hons) Working with Children, Young People and Families with Foundation Year

Our BA (Hons) Working with Children, Young People and Families with a Foundation Year programme has at its heart a strong commitment to social justice and equality. We will provide you with a range of teaching and learning experiences to build on your existing skills and motivation so that you can contribute to a changing society, particularly with services who work with, or for, vulnerable children, young people and their families.

By studying a foundation year in either Society, Childhood and Education, your first year will be spent learning a wide range of broad subject areas which then open up opportunities for you to specialise further in your next year which would be the first year of a full degree programme.
You will study very broad subjects in your foundation year, which is designed to prepare you for a range of courses and not just one particular BSc or BA degree.
So although you are studying a BA or BSc in a specific course BA Working with Children, Young People and Families the foundation year sets you up for a number of other possible degrees starting the following year. It may be that you dont end up doing a degree in precisely the same subject as your foundation year.
