14-15th February saw a number of young people on campus partaking in University: A Users Guide, an essential part of the A2K scheme.

A2K (Access to Keele) is a structured programme co-ordinated by Outreach and Widening Participation to support learners with their preparations for transition to Higher Education. Learners who successfully complete the programme are awarded the equivalent of 40 UCAS tariff points, which are taken into consideration should they apply for a course at Keele.

The students, from the local and wider area, found sessions such as 'How to survive a lecture' & 'UCAS: The Nuts & Bolts' extremely useful, whilst Dr Zoe Robinson's lecture on sustainability caused much debate in the respective seminars.  The two-day course concluded with the attendees presenting back to a panel on issues that were debated in their seminar groups. The course was supported by a team of Keele Student Ambassadors.
