For schools and colleges

The Outreach Team at the University of Westminster provide opportunities for teachers and educational advisers in schools and colleges to support students considering higher education.

We offer a range of services from general advice on higher education through to specialist subject presentations, as well as activities that engage your students with the University of Westminster. Visits and activities can be tailored to meet your needs.

Our services for your students

We can deliver talks and presentations on the following topics:

• Applying to university and the UCAS process
• Choosing a course and a university
• Student life and why go to university
• Student finance and sources of funding
• Subject presentations and academic talks

These presentations can be delivered by a member of the Outreach Team, our student ambassadors (current University of Westminster students) or a combination of both.

Our services for staff in schools and colleges

For teachers and advisers, staff in IAG roles, tutors and curriculum staff, we offer specialist academic and information sessions throughout the year. Sessions could include presentations by departments as well as updates on new courses, opportunities and information as the University evolves.

For example, do you have a class full of budding lawyers or the next generation of designers? We can arrange bespoke visits to answer detailed questions about a particular subject.

Other services

In addition to the above we also attend many higher education and UCAS fairs locally, regionally and nationally.If you would like a member of the Outreach Team to attend your event, please contact us.

Here is the schedule of fairs and events we will attend

Open Days

Open Days are an excellent opportunity for potential students to find out more comprehensive information about their chosen subject and to glimpse what student life will be like at the University of Westminster.  A range of lectures are offered on the day. Prospective students will be able to attend a lecture, speak to academic staff and talk to representatives from student accommodation, student finance and admissions.
