This on campus day, designed for Year 8 and Year 9 students, will allow students to learn more about how their choices now will affect their future, based around the SMART targets. The day will include an Introduction to higher education talk, campus tour and current student Q&A, along with the following two workshops:
Workshop One: Paving the Way
This interactive session explores the routes students can take through GCSE options, post-16 and beyond.
Workshop Two: Project Boost
Project Boost allows students to use their creativity to develop a service to provide students with support in an area of their choosing. After working in teams, students will present their ideas to the group.
