University Taster Days

Pupils from Year 10 and Year 11 spent a day at Cardiff University in the School of Psychology and the School of English, Communication and Philosophy, to find out more about university life and the scope of subjects on offer at university. They assisted with a psychological experiment involving attention span and computer games and attended cultural theory seminars on Aliens and Gender. The event was funded by First Campus.

‘Excellent day had by all pupils involved —thoroughly enjoyed’. Miss Hill, Aberdare Boys’ Comprehensive School

‘An interesting and helpful day. Pleasant and helpful staff. One pupil summed up her day — ‘I can’t wait to go to university’.’ Angela Greenman, Hawthorn High School.
