What is HE and the benefits
Learners explore what critical thinking is and how and when they can employ problem-solving skills both inside and outside the classroom.
-
Routes to HE/Careers
Learners will identify different routes into Higher Education, considering what their pathway may look like after GCSEs. They will explore the pathways available to pursue specific careers they may be interested in.

University Research
Learners will work in groups to research different universities and courses they offer. Each group will focus on a different university and have key questions to explore, they will feed back to their peers on what they have learnt.
-
Myth-busting question and answer
Learners will be encouraged to ask DANCOP staff and student ambassadors any questions they have about HE pathways and the information they have learnt throughout the programme.
