Further Education

Our Student Recruitment Team is pleased to offer specialised advice and guidance to meet the needs of different groups of students.  Below is a summary of the various talks and workshops we offer to FE students.

In addition to these talks we can organise group visits to our Open Days where your students can find out more about the courses we offer, view our teaching facilities and get information about finance issues and accommodation options. We can also arrange for your students to come and visit the campus at other times, perhaps to find out more about a particular subject area. The team also regularly attends HE and careers fairs in schools and colleges, so if you're arranging one, drop us a line. Whatever your HE liaison needs might be, our team is happy to help. Please note: we do not charge for these services.

These sessions below are all tailored to reflect the different student groups, whether vocational, A Level or Access students.
