KS3 Destination Uni

KS3 Destination Uni is for pupils in Years 7-9 and gives them the opportunity to explore higher education through a range of assemblies, workshops, and interactive sessions. These activities are designed to support informed choices while providing an insight into university and graduate careers.

In academic year 2024/25, we’ll be moving to a more targeted approach to ensure our pre-16 schools’ outreach interventions are impactful and beneficial to pupils from backgrounds currently underrepresented in higher education. By working in this way, we can track pupils’ progress and evidence the impact of our interventions.

As a result, we’ll be focusing our activities on a cohort of selected partner primary and secondary schools. These have been identified based on having the highest number of pupils from backgrounds currently underrepresented in higher education. Existing partnership arrangements with schools have also been considered in our targeting criteria.

Once we have scheduled these partner schools’ activities, we’ll open our diary for other schools that meet our criteria. This will enable a wide range of pupils to benefit from our programme of outreach activities.

As always, we will be hosting a range of on-campus multi-school events in the coming academic year. These will be promoted to school contacts via our newsletters and other promotional channels with full details of dates, content, and how to secure places for your pupils. 

This webpage will be updated in October 2024.
