Social responsibility
We believe in embedding community engagement and
social responsibility in our planning, people, resources
and strategic infrastructure across all academic schools
and
professional services.

Aim:
To contribute to regional efforts to raise aspirations to

colleges.

Widening participation
Our widening participation programme helps to
raise aspirations and educational attainment in
primary and secondary schools and colleges.
We have made information literacy part of
this widening participation agenda.

Visits before
• Piecemeal activity
• No consistency in offering
• No inclusion of local widening participation target schools

• Great variation amongst schools
• Hindered by curriculum demands
and exam pressures
Students leave school with few
reliable information skills
