This event was hosted by Liz Boden from Staffordshire University. It gave students an insight into university life and what to expect. The timeline and UCAS process was covered with lots of Q & A and interactive quizzes. 

Students were tasked with searching for courses, looking at modules, course durations and locations. Liz directed students to online resources which provide helpful information and support with personal statements. 

Students were engaged through the use of questions such as: Why is a university course considered the same as buying a brand new car?

Katie – Because you have to consider not just the functionality of the car but how much it costs.

Favour – The course will drive you to different places.

Well done Year 12! There was a great turn out and lots of great questions. The next session is in 2 weeks’ time.
