Please note that our Pre-16 programmes and activities are targeted at schools in areas with low rates of higher education participation, pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds and groups underrepresented in higher education. Requests from schools that meet our targeting criteria in relation to this are prioritised and we're unable to accommodate every request we receive.
