Welcome to For Schools and Colleges

Schools Outreach & Widening Participation team works with students and schools around the UK, throughout the year, on a variety of programmes. Our aim is to recruit the best students for the courses that the University offers, irrespective of background, and to support the applications of those who are applying through expert advice and guidance. Our staff are knowledgeable admissions advisers and higher education advisers with wide-ranging experience in the Higher Education sector and a diverse range of educational backgrounds and knowledge. We can provide guidance on many aspects of the application process, including admissions tests and personal statements, as well as provide information and guidance about Durham University.

We work with post-16 students across the UK and pre-16 students within the North East. Contact the Schools Outreach & Widening Participation team using the link in the Teachers section below, for anything outside of this.
