I am thinking of retraining. I have only had part time jobs (which I've mainly hated) since my DD was born 9 years ago and can't stand the thought of a lifetime of this. I would love to do something worth while which I would enjoy and social worker seems to fit the bill.
However, I have little in the way of qualifications but quite a lot of life experience. Would I be accepted as a mature student or would I need more on my CV such as voluntary work? Are there any universities considered best for this course? Would I need to do an access course? Would I apply through UCAS?
Any advice greatly appreciated!
