Summary
For students with a background of care, the journey to, and through, higher education can present challenges – but the impact can be life changing. Patricia Ambrose, Director of the National Network for the Education of Care Leavers (NNECL) joins us to clarify what sort of support students can expect when they go to university and how they can explore this as part of their research, how the landscape is changing, and the launch of the NNECL quality mark. You can also hear how UCAS is supporting care experienced students, including a new adviser resource.
