Pre-16

We offer a range of activities that aim to inform and delight young people about the possibilities of higher education. They're designed to enrich their curriculum and promote the idea that a university education is an exciting and achievable prospect.

We work closely with targeted schools and colleges across the region to deliver these hands-on projects.
