We’re proud that our widening access programmes have been accredited by Skills Builder for demonstrating best practice in building essential skills. We provide opportunities for students to practise and demonstrate essential skills, to develop their academic confidence and self-efficacy. Through participation, students reflect on their own skill set and the importance of skills for success, in order to support their personal development and progression to higher education.
