Cambridge
- IELTS
- 6.0 level requirementThis is the English requirement the university publishes for study at this level, not one printed for this course. Most departments ask for exactly this and some ask for more, so it tells you what to aim at rather than what you will be asked for. Send us the course and we will confirm the requirement it actually sets, including any minimum in each paper.

Overview
Working with Children, Families and Communities is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Social Work is reading led, with methods training in the middle years and a dissertation at the end.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £17,500 a year.
Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
