Developing your skills as an adviser

Whether you are a careers adviser, or a teacher supporting students, you'll need to continually reflect on your careers practice to keep improving the value of what you do. We can help with some of this...

Direct mail

Showcase your brand experience, not just your message, by getting it through the letterboxes of young people, students, and potential new customers. Direct mail can help your brand stand out.

Disabled students

Every year, over 100,000 disabled students (also known as students with special educational needs and disabilities, or SEND for short) apply through UCAS to study at a university or college in the UK – including mental health conditions, learning differences, and long-term health conditions. Students can access a range of support to help them succeed with their studies, day-to-day activities, travel, and lifestyle.

Disabled students: Preparing for open days and visits

Open days are a valuable way of finding out about a university or college first-hand – you can tour the facilities, speak to staff and current students, and really get a feel for whether you would like to study there.

Disabled students: Researching your choices

Our best advice: start your research early. Alongside your research into courses and universities, you may also need to take your individual support needs into account when making your choices.

Discover Subjects

Connect with students as they find out more about their subject of interest and translate ideas into more concrete plans, at our Discover Subjects events.

Displaced students
