Our Year 8 students, who are part of the Into University programme, enjoyed a day trip to Cambridge, arranged by Into University and supported by AMSI staff on a joint venture.
Students had already attended a two-hour preparation session with Into University, who are based on the site next to AMSI, to introduce the offer of University as an option for future career planning.
Students met with current University students for a Q&A session and asked them about their University choices and motivations and what it is like at University. This was followed by lunch in the wonderful dining area, which really is spectacular and looks like the set of Harry Potter, and then a tour of the building as well as the history of the historic educational establishment.
