University Of Birmingham School
“Becoming a UoBS student opens up a young persons path in the most incredible way, with the support, expertise and community that UoBS has to offer you really can achieve anything. During my two years of sixth form I engaged with many of these opportunities for example chances to network and familiarise myself in environments that I aspire to find myself in post education, including visits to organisations in Birmingham and London as well as a variety of events and talks at the university; an example the Women in Finance conference. I also had the pleasure of attending a lunch at the House of Lords as a representative of the school. These sorts of experiences are what taking learning beyond the classroom is all about and not the kinds of things accessible to just any organisation. I will be forever grateful to the incredibly dedicated staff who have the most inspiring dedication to not only their subject/ job but for the wellbeing and success of every individual student. Nothing was ever too ambitious and every student is encouraged to go above and beyond; nothing was ever to big an ask. The University of Birmingham School has impacted my life in so many ways, not only by academic achievement and guidance for life/ further education but by helping me shape my character into one that can tackle any situation that faces me.”
