The Go Higher in Healthcare work experience programme (delivered as a Uni Connect pilot in 2018) was targeted at young people from areas where progression rates to Higher Education are low (and particularly so when above average GCSE attainment is taken into account).
The programme included an induction session, a 2-5 day placement and a review session within which participants are encouraged to reflect on their experience and explore their personal development/ learning gains.
Despite promising signs of resource, this Uni Connect funded work experience programme was not repeated due to its high level of resource intensity.
