TEMA students during a workshop with The University of Manchester in February 2025

Aiming Higher at The University of Manchester ( Published: 26/02/2025)

As part of our commitment to promoting ambition and aspirational higher educational pathways for students, 50 of our Year 10 students visited The University of Manchester.

Students visited the University of Manchester for a variety of orientation and higher education information sessions. Students were able to tour the campus and visited the historic Samuel Alexander building, which houses the Faculty of Arts and Alan Turing building.

Students were able to look at the different societies offered by universities and worked in teams to design and present their own society to the group.

Students also took part in a session on women鈥檚 history delivered by Eve Pennington from the university鈥檚 School of Arts. Students looked at key figures in the women鈥檚 rights movement in Manchester such as Olive Morris, who became an integral advocate for the Manchester Black Women鈥檚 Co-operative and the Black Women鈥檚 Mutual Aid Group.

The students were utterly fantastic today. Their engagement with both the societies workshop and the EDI workshop was outstanding. For the society workshop, there was a plethora of fantastic concepts and they were all worthy of first place. They are all a credit to themselves and the school.
