NCW: An Introduction to University

On Friday Ella Taylor from Liverpool Hope University delivered two engaging sessions tailored to different year groups.

Year 8 were introduced to the concept of university, exploring what university life is like, the range of subjects available to study, and how higher education can open doors to different careers.

Meanwhile, Year 10 took part in a session focused on planning their next steps after GCSEs. They explored the different pathways available, including A Levels, college courses and vocational routes, and learned how these choices can lead to university and a wide range of future careers.
