Trainee Social Worker

Approach Social Work (formerly known as the Frontline programme)

Be part of something bigger. Join the next generation of social workers.

At Frontline – England’s largest social work charity – everything we do aims to make life better for children who need a social worker, to help keep them safe from harm and to give them every possible chance to fulfil their potential.

Each year, our nation’s social workers support hundreds of thousands of children who do not have a safe and stable home. They make a real difference to their lives and to those of their families. Our mission is to create social change for children and families, by developing excellent social work practice, leadership and innovation.

Approach Social Work (formerly known as the Frontline programme) is a three-year, fully funded master’s programme, building a new, diverse generation of social workers. By blending learning and practice, what you discover in theory is eased into real-life settings supervised by a social worker. Gaining your postgraduate diploma within 12 months, will be the first step in your life-changing career. Meaning you can earn while you learn, then open the door to a job that makes a difference.

We also offer insight events and paid internships, to help you build the knowledge and skills to thrive in a social change career.

What’s in it for you?

* Earn as you learn with a salary of up to £34,000 from year two.

* Qualify as a social worker and complete a fully funded master’s degree.

* Get high-quality training and supervision from experienced social workers, academics and coaches in a rich, supportive environment.

* Become part of the Frontline Fellowship and receive ongoing support and training throughout your career.

Who we’re looking for

We are looking for your potential to become an outstanding children’s social worker and leader, empowering families to achieve positive change. No specific experience is required to apply.

We value diverse perspectives and experiences and a commitment to advocating for the communities’ social workers serve. We’re dedicated to fostering diversity in our programme and supporting applicants from underrepresented backgrounds.

You will also meet the following criteria:

* Have at least a 2.2 (predicted or obtained) in an undergraduate honours degree (or international equivalent)

* Have obtained GCSE English Language at Grade C/4 or above (or approved equivalent qualification)

* Possess the right to work and study in the UK (including access to public funds) for the duration of the programme (until September 2028)

* Be resident in England by the time the programme commences

* Not be a qualified social worker
