The facilities at coventry university are amazing, as well as the teaching and the overall atmosphere of having a city campus. The social aspect of this university is also brilliant, with societies and other clubs to ensure you gain great friends. The improvement i would make however is allowing more access to student wellbeing centres, as these are often fully booked and really difficult to get access to when needed.

The best aspects of the social work course is the opportunities throughout. Being able to gain real life experience through a 70 day and 100 day placement. This has been able to allow students like myself to be able to link all the theories we learn, to real life practice. Which allows us to gain a wider knowledge base and ensure we push for the best practice for our service users. I do however believe that for an improvement there could be extended teaching times or sessions held to ensure that students are supported throughout assignments and also seminars which allow us to talk about current social service news and how this can impact our future practice. Overall coventry university are extremely supportive within this course and i am very proud to be a part of this cohort.

The facilities are fantastic, the AG building allows clinical skills to be run in a realistic environment and the new super realistic patient dummy we use is incredible. The staff are extremely knowledgeable, approachable and all have different ways of teaching which allows all lectures and seminars to be interesting and engaging as no two days are the same.

The placements I’ve been assigned have really enhanced my knowledges and clinical skills, but the support from the lecturers within university allowed me to reach out when days were tough, helping me not feel alone. We started this course doing a mix of blended learning but currently have gone to full time on campus, it’s been great to be in person as the interaction within class is much better, the only downfall is the limited parking meaning attending in person can be stressful. As a mature student, with children , the only change I would put forward, is being able to access lectures that are on campus, online - when for whatever reason we cannot attend in person but are still able to join online.
