The UCS Unlocks Programme has two aims:

• To promote equality of opportunity by ensuring that students have access to key experiential learning, that not only allows them to access the curriculum, but also aims to bring the learnt curriculum to life, regardless of any barrier that they may have faced in life to date. 

• To work with potential employers to ensure that our graduates leave with key experiences, technical skills and life skills that allow them to access the world or work, and stand out from the crowd. Promoting technical skills and creating employable graduates.

​

Our curriculum leaders have identified a range of opportunities that are mapped for students to access throughout their seven years with us. These strategical linked activities bring to life previous or future learning, and promote cross-curricular learning, ensuring that we highlight the transfer of knowledge and skills across curriculum areas and into the workplace.
