The Sutton Trust-run programme targets young people from low and middle-income backgrounds, offering placements across 10 UK universities.
Summer schools offer the students, who are typically 17-year-olds, a chance to get a taste of student life at a research-led university and helps them to make strong applications to higher education.
The residentials include “busy” academic days as well as social activities and this year the programme is also developing a series of extension activities, including follow-up e-mentoring support, help with UCAS personal statements, and summer schools for teachers.
A new addition this year will be 50 places at the Royal Veterinary College. The successful applicants will benefit from a week-long residential course with all expenses covered.
