Talk to a counsellorOur masters degree in childhood development and wellbeing is designed for practitioners working with children, young people and families. This course will also be of interest if you are looking to develop a foundation in theory and practice issues relating to young people’s mental health. You might be a social worker, youth worker or a teacher looking to update your knowledge of mental health for children and young people. You might be a speech and language therapist looking for a course combining your expertise with mental health. Whichever stage you’re at in your career, our course focuses on developing your therapeutic and practical skills, theoretical knowledge, applied research skills, and explores wellbeing for practitioners. Some of the topics you’ll consider include key mental health and wellbeing constructs during childhood, ‘typical’ development, strategies to maintain your wellbeing at work, and how to design research projects with impact. The course will give you the opportunity to understand how major life events and intersectional issues affect development and growth, as well as practical tools for undertaking assessments and designing effective interventions for young people across a range of settings.
