This afternoon, our Year 12 students were visited by Sarah from the Student Engagement Team of Cardiff University, who delivered an engaging presentation about the many opportunities available to students considering studying there.

Sarah explained why Cardiff University is an excellent choice for higher education, as a prestigious Russell Group university with a strong international reputation. Students learnt about the array of subjects on offer with also the opportunity to study abroad or have a year in industry as part of their degree. 

With student finance being a growing concern amongst students, Cardiff is a vibrant and student-friendly capital city with the key advantage of offering more reasonably priced accommodation and everyday expenses, making it an attractive option for students seeking value alongside quality education.

The presentation gave our Year 12 students valuable insight into higher education and what it is like to study at university.
