Primary schools

We offer an inspirational range of activities for primary school pupils, designed to engage Years 5 and 6. Primary2Uni aims to introduce university to primary school pupils in a fun and interactive way. We have designed our workshops to raise aspirations while providing your pupils with an insight into higher education, our degree courses and STEMM careers.

We are 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 are focusing our activities to 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’ll 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 with more details shortly.
