On Tuesday, 19th October, Mr Conor and Mrs Patman took a group of 12 HPA students on a trip to Jesus College (an affiliation of the University of Cambridge) for the launch of the second year of the Insight Discover programme.
Throughout the day, students were given a tour of the campus and surrounding buildings so that they could gain an appreciation of day-to-day student life in higher education; partook in activities which required them to consider their future options and evaluate the routes they would have to take and the qualifications they would need to achieve their goals; and were involved in group activities which developed their teamwork and problem-solving skills which are beneficial in a variety of professions and at university.
The students will continue with the Insight Discover programme by completing projects throughout the year which are intended to inspire students and raise aspirations.
