Study with us

Undergraduate

We offer three undergraduate courses that aim to provide an experiential, work-based and theoretical understanding of the problems faced by troubled or challenging individuals (both children/adolescents and adults), in social and emotional difficulty.

Each year students are invited to tell us about their experience while studying with us. You can read some of the highlights and what we've done in response to the feedback we received.

The Bachelor of Arts (BA) builds on the knowledge acquired in the foundation degree.
