Voices and visions: collaborating for improved third sector social work student placements

Voices and visions

The focus of this project is to explore student social work placements in third sector organisations, to understand more about what best supports a high quality third sector practice learning experience. Our work builds on the resource developed in the first year of this work.

There will be a focus on:

  • The learning relationships involved in student placements
  • Understanding the processes and structures that support high quality student practice experiences in third sector settings
