"UniConnect have been amazing to work with and we can't thank them enough for offering this additional support for young people. This has and will most certainly support them in their ideas and choices to access further education. The support, communication and dedication from the team has been second to none and we are so grateful of what they can offer/support young people with in terms of further education."
"the programme (and especially the team I have had the privilege of working with) has been a huge advantage to our school. I am very happy with their aims and ethos and they are consistent, organised and enthusiastic in their delivery."
"Many students who came here (a University campus) today did not see university as an option but now feel confident that this is possible."
‘It is a fantastic opportunity for pupils to have a sense of the world of work and the expectations on them becoming young adults moving into post 16 college and the working world. I would love for it to run longer!’
