MSWPG7107 Social Work Practice with Children, Young People and Families
This course enables students to develop an understanding of relevant practice frameworks which inform social work with children and families. Within this course, students will learn to identify, consider and critically reflect on microlevel personal and interpersonal dynamics and macro-level systems factors impacting family wellbeing. Students will develop their capacities to plan interventions aimed at achieving the most effective outcomes for families' health, wellbeing and life chance. Case studies reflecting the complex contemporary challenges confronting children and families will provide the foundation for students to develop and implement social work responses which consider the person in the environment; recognise the lasting impact of oppression and marginalisation on individuals, families and communities; and, uphold the rights, dignity and autonomy of individuals and families.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $997
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
