Working with schools
At Nottingham Trent University, we are committed to social mobility. By working in partnership with schools in Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire County, our aim is to close the gap in attainment amongst Free School Meals (FSM) pupils and increase participation in higher education.
Research shows that young people who engage in multiple outreach activities are significantly more likely to apply to and thrive in higher education. Starting in year 5 up to year 11, we deliver activities in-school and on our campuses.
