New College Durham (NCD) has once again received approval from Social Work England to continue to offer the prestigious Bachelor of Arts with Honours (BA Hons) in Social Work.
Social Work England is a specialist regulator focussing on social workers in England. It sets standards, holds a register, quality assures education and investigates complaints with the aim of achieving positive change in social work.
NCD’s Social Work provision recently underwent a rigorous inspection from Social Work England and has been re-approved. The inspection process takes place every three years and lasts for a minimum of three days. The inspection is designed to ensure that institutions meet education and training standards and covers staff, facilities and learning resources, training placement providers, people with lived experience of social work and students from their admission through to achievements.
