Deadline to apply: Tuesday 7th October
Applications are now open for the Lucy Cavendish College Cambridge’s Academic Attainment Programme. This is a programme for around 1000 high-achieving UK state-school students in Year 12 who meet certain Widening Participation criteria. The focus of this programme is on raising attainment, by supporting students in their A’ Level studies, so that they can reach their potential and make applications to competitive universities.
Students will get access to subject-specific enrichment classes led by experts, to allow them to develop and expand on their knowledge of the content of their A’ Levels, and to help them to achieve the very best grades in their exams. They will also attend Peer Discussion Groups, to prepare them for the university environment by improving their oracy and their problem-solving skills. Students will also receive advice from the Admissions Team on every stage of the university application process across the 2 years, and they will complete a Supracurricular Exploration Project to encourage them to think more seriously about their degree choices. Students will also receive subject-specific revision guidance in the lead up to their exams, to ensure they are well-placed to receive the best possible grades.
