The Brilliant Club
We partner with The Brilliant Club, a charity that seeks to mobilise the PhD community to engage with state schools and support talented pupils from under-represented backgrounds to progress to highly-selective universities.
How to take part
The Brilliant Club works with state schools. All applications and enquiries should be directed to The Brilliant Club via their website.
The University of Sheffield’s main collaboration with The Brilliant Club is via the Scholars Programme. This innovative widening access initiative employs doctoral and post-doctoral researchers on a part-time basis to deliver programmes of academic enrichment to small groups of pupils. Through a combination of university trips, in-school tutorials and online resources, it supports pupils aged 10-18 to develop the knowledge, skills and ambition needed to progress to highly-selective universities.
