Bridge to your Future

Structure of the course

The course will complement existing information and provision from universities; offer ongoing support and coaching during the first two terms at university; and be combined with peer mentoring from current undergraduate students. Our draft Theory of Change, which is a living document that will be refined during the project is overleaf. We have also included a project plan.

We aim to:

• Equip students with the skills and knowledge they need to prepare for and manage the practical, emotional and logistical aspects of transition;
• Increase confidence, social networks and feelings of belonging amongst students, especially before and during their first two terms at university;
• Signpost support available at university, ensuring that students know how to access information and resources;
