Widening Participation Strategy
Widening Participation Strategy
2025 - 2028
This strategy outlines how we will continue to ensure our university student body is reflective of the diversity we find more generally in society.
Widening Participation Goals:
- To increase access and participation in higher education for people from underrepresented socio-economic groups, and minority status groups.
- To engage with schools, Further Education and Training providers, community groups, employers and the wider community to foster sustained change in beliefs and attitudes about higher education.
- To develop collaborative strategic partnerships internally within the university to promote the widening participation agenda.
- To collect and disseminate research on widening participation activities delivered throughout the University.
