A regular question that is asked by many children and parents is "Why go to University?" In this session we aim to explore the benefits of studying at University, including the academic, social and employability benefits. We have found that children and parents of children in years 9-12 find these sessions very beneficial, as it helps to make a much more informed decision about HE.
