Bridgwater and Taunton College Trust have recently launched their Aspire programme.
This is an initiative spanning four secondary schools for students in Years 9 and 10 involving young people who have potential to apply to Oxbridge or other Russell Group universities.
The vision of the ASPIRE programme is that young people are able to use this experience and their learning to overcome the contextual barriers that can often make progress into further education difficult.
The programme aims to promote academic excellence and intellectual curiosity, so that students are better able to think critically, independently, and creatively.
The Trust is keen to hear from local professionals who share the Aspire vision and who would like to deliver a short aspirational and thought-provoking seminar, or another programme contribution.
