There are two approaches. I'm not sure what "a-levels" are but they sound like a part of a UK based system. If it is equivalent to an undergrad degree she would want to go for a graduate degree in social work. If they are related to high school education then she should pursue a bachelor degree in social work.
the other approach is to get a job in a county social service agency.
