AccessEd delivers a range of programmes and materials to support students, teachers and universities in the UK and overseas that see more young people from under-represented backgrounds progressing to higher education and with the skills to thrive post-school. We specialise in creating interventions that use the expertise and passion of post-graduate researchers to build skills, preparedness and confidence with school students, but we work in a variety of ways to maximise pathways to higher education and support graduate success once there.
Our core programmes are delivered under the banners of GrowUni, ReachUni and LeadUni.
You can find a selection of AccessEd's programmes below. These include GrowUni programmes that we are currently incubating outside the UK with our in-country partners. They also include the online and in-person ReachUni programmes that we run for schools in the UK and overseas.
