SCHOOL & COLLEGE OUTREACH

The Student Recruitment team provides a link between Northumbria University and schools, colleges and individuals.

We offer guidance, support and information to help prospective applicants, their teachers, parents and carers make informed choices about Higher Education and how to choose a university.  

Our team of Outreach Junior Coordinators and Coordinators visit schools and colleges to deliver our Evolve and Junior Evolve programmes, as well as events such as Careers Fairs. We also welcome groups on-campus visits and run sessions for parents/carers and teachers/advisers. 

Below is our package of outreach activity which can be delivered either on or off campus. Please click on a category to discover more information about the range of events, activities and support we can offer.
