Outreach Activities. To complement our bursaries and scholarship scheme we will continue to deliver and introduce new activities designed to maintain and enhance recruitment of students currently underrepresented. The new activities have been designed to provide steady, incremental growth in our outreach work, building on our previous wide experience. The following activities will be funded from additional fees income: Lancaster University Volunteer Unit (LUVU) Schools Partnership (£46,000): a community outreach programme delivered in partnership with 18 primary and 9 secondary schools in the Lancaster, Morecambe, Blackpool and surrounding areas for approximately 2000 pupils from low socio-economic and low participation areas. Activity will build on initiatives from 2006/07: Campus-based curriculum days for year 10 students Supporting 6th form students with leadership training and helping them create and run social businesses. Additional match funding from the charity ”v” has expanded the scope of this work. Significant student placement in WP schools to assist with basic skills Creation of University credit bearing activity for students to provide subject expertise to needy schools. Students develop teaching resources for projects and lead specialist teaching sessions Developments will include expansion of the University credit bearing scheme to other subject areas and planned expansion of the social business activity in partnership with Burnley Football Club which will target “difficult to reach” young people. In general the activity will provide access to university staff, students, resources and facilities, promote higher education and active citizenship, enhance confidence, increase pupil and teacher awareness and knowledge of higher education, and provide voluntary work opportunities for over 100 Lancaster undergraduates to enhance their employability. The activity will extend the existing portfolio of LUVU community based activities, complement Aimhigher activities and respond to an identified need discussed with local schools. Masterclasses and Saturday Schools (£60,000): a curriculum enhancement activity for pupils in years 11 - 13 designed to enrich their school and further education curricula, promote progression to higher education and raise awareness of higher educational opportunities at Lancaster and elsewhere. The 06/07 target of 300 pupils from low socio-economic groups and low participation areas was comfortably exceeded and the plan in future years is to at ...
Outreach Activities. Brunel University has a strong reputation for widening access both within the sector and with its partners in both mainstream education and further education. The University has had a dedicated team since 2002 focussing on outreach, transition and retention and has achieved considerable success both directly with local Schools and Colleges in West London and through its award winning partnership programme with the London Borough of Hillingdon. Brunel also is recognised by Buttle UK for its efforts to encourage the entry of care- leavers into the University and its efforts to provide specialist support for this group. Our long term outreach strategy is based upon years of providing evolving forms of activity and targeting interventions on very specific cohorts to achieve objectives. Given the inexorable rise in requests from Schools and Colleges for IAG support we have found that focussing on establishments in receipt of the newly introduced “Pupil Premium” helps to more accurately target activity. A large percentage of our students are from WP backgrounds which is unusual for a research-intensive institution. Key activities undertaken annually include: HE awareness visits, master classes, subject taster days, IAG sessions and summer schools focusing on the 5 west London boroughs of Xxxxx, Ealing, Hammersmith and Fulham, Harrow and Hounslow - high priority schools/colleges and low participation neighbourhoodsfrom Year 5/6 upwards Events in partnership with local schools, FE colleges, HEIs, voluntary organizations, local authorities, regional or national progression projects Parents/carers annual event Campus visits for disabled students from local schools/colleges Annual pre-induction day for students with disabilities plus induction week programme Activities in schools, colleges, community settings etc to aid successful transition to HE of WP students LB Hillingdon Primary school campus visits and other awareness raising activities (12 annually) Bespoke activities for LB Hillingdon partnership Academies in low participation neighbourhoods (LPNs) – Harefield and Stockley All activities are fully evaluated through written feedback, focus groups and action research within a developing formal evaluation framework covering both the OFFA Access Agreement and the WPSS. However through membership of AccessHE, the pan-London partnership body, we intend to start to use data tracking approaches to enable us to track the outcomes from our work regardless of whether st...
Outreach Activities. In 2012/13, the University will expand its programme of well-targeted and high quality outreach activities to which it committed in the 2008 access agreement, with a focus on enhancing applications to Durham University from a specific range of backgrounds. The University recognises that the activities play a broader role in extending educational opportunities to those from non-traditional backgrounds but the specific target is to promote fair access to Durham by increasing applications from students from state schools or colleges and NS-SEC 4-7 backgrounds who do not traditionally apply to Durham. The feedback from participants has shown that activities which work best in raising aspiration and attainment are those where there is direct engagement of students and teachers with the University: in particular summer schools, teacher conferences and the Supported Progression Compact Scheme with its series of residential events. Under the present agreement the University therefore intends to expand all of these activities. It will expand school liaison more broadly, but it will ensure that contact with schools is followed up by invitations to staff and students to engage in day-long and residential events at the University. The University is therefore increasing the volume and coverage of its most successful outreach programmes. The University will therefore continue to use additional tuition fee income to provide: a dedicated team of staff working specifically on realising the aims of the widening access plan, a compact scheme involving regular targeted contact with students from Year 10 onwards, dissemination of financial information to applicants and prospective applicants, residential summer schools, school and college visits, leadership for the Durham Excellence in Education Partnership, the expanded Foundation Centre programme, offering a direct progression route into Durham degrees for LPN, mature, and non-traditionally qualified students , conferences and events for teachers who support higher education progression. The Compact Scheme A priority will be placed on expansion of the Supported Progression Compact Scheme, which is a series of intensive activities focussed on the most able, least likely to apply, disadvantaged students from targeted areas. It is making a significant contribution towards increasing applications from state schooled students from NS-SEC categories 4-7 from a region that has one of the lowest HE participation rates in England. Im...
Outreach Activities. The institution currently engages in a range of activities funded through Aim Higher which is targeted at principally students in the 14-21 age range. The college also undertakes outreach activities within the local community through a range of outreach centres/community/drop in study centres. The primary activity is to engage more learners who come within widening participation categories.
Outreach Activities. Non-residential summer school In partnership with Aimhigher Sussex, the University will host a non-residential Summer Screen Event for approximately 70 Year 9 students from schools across the West Sussex Region. There will be opportunities for students to take part in drama, and dance activities as well as having access to the media technology available to produce a DVD of the event. Working with staff and students from the University the school students will experience first hand what its like to be a University student. Cross curricular event for local schools The University will host a cross curricular activity for approximately 100 Year 7 pupils from 7 secondary schools in the local area. Some activities will take place in the schools facilitated by student ambassadors but the final showcase event will take place at the University. Mature Student Welcome Event Building on the successful pilot held in September 2007 attended by 30 new mature students, the University will host a Mature Student Welcome Day in September 2008 shortly before the start of their first year undergraduate programme. This event will provide the students with an opportunity to meet with other students and be reminded and reassured of the academic, pastoral and financial support available to all students. Feedback from this year‟s pilot suggests that students feel more confident about starting their course having met with other mature students in an informal yet informative event. One of the outcomes of this event was that those students attending expressed a wish for a follow up activity to be held possibly after Christmas. This will be more of a social event open to all Mature Students and will provide an opportunity to pick up any concerns the students have, thereby act as a retention aid Aspiration raising and HE awareness activities Following the completion of a mapping exercise, the Widening Participation staff working in collaboration University‟s Widening Participation Liaison Group (formed in 2007), the Schools Liaison Team and Aimhigher Sussex will identify non-Aimhigher schools in areas of low participation in HE (LPNs) and NS-SEC classes 4,5 6 and 7. The main geographical focus will fall within the coastal strip and within the University‟s „region‟. Campus visits and Taster sessions will be offered to these schools as well as visits into schools by WP staff and especially recruited and trained Student Ambassadors. A booklet give a Menu of activities will be produced by ...
