School Placement Opportunities
Placement and Summer School Opportunities:
The School has a dedicated Practice, Placement and Service User team who work to facilitate relevant professional skills onto our degree programmes and support students into placements. Students on Social Work and Youth and Community Development programmes have compulsory placements to complete as part of their awards. The School also offers placement opportunities to students on Social Care, Health and Well-being, Health and Social Care degrees and the Integrated masters programme. Placements are drawn from a range of local statutory and voluntary sector welfare organisations. The School is a member of the Cheshire and Merseyside Social Work partnership and has partnership links with Nugent Care and Person Shaped Services (PSS). We have very good relationships with a range of welfare agencies covering work in the areas of mental health, child support, adult social care, refugee work, domestic violence and work with families of those in prison.
