We have are so excited to be working with our Lead Sponsor, the University of Kent in delivering a new innovative educational, Partnership Development Programme. Exciting times as we build new pathways with a group of our partner primary schools in helping to support student aspirations and inspiring young learners to think big and plan for above and beyond Year 6.
The University of Kent are highly experienced in widening participation and breaking down barriers to learning and so through the innovative University of Kent Academies Trust (UKAT) we are super excited to offer a variety of different programmes and pathways to 2021-2022 Term 1 engaging Key Stage Two little learners with some rather inspiring educational opportunities such as:
University Super Saturday's
Who Who's Careers Programme
Secondary School Experience Programmes
Science and Arts Extravaganza
Mini Mindfulness Scholarships
Medway Test Virtual Workshops
and so much more......
The University of Kent Sciences Faculty set the tone by launching a rather dynamic fast paced science performance using liquid nitrogen to mark the beginnings of this new educational venture in Term 6. Scientifically thrilling is the only way to describe this introductory event delivered at CG, and students and staff from several local primary schools were really delighted to experience such an educationally creative science-based experience.
Next up is our October half term break virtual webinar as we have over 50 students signed up to attend our online 11+ workshop delivered by educational provider, Spark Learning to prepare Year 5 students for the Medway Test in 2022!
We will be updating you about this fantastic new project via social media so please do follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram!
