My time as a UCL Sutton Scholar
Year 10 Harris Experience student, Shardae (Harris Academy Purley), on the transformational impact UCL's Sutton Scholars scheme has had on her university aspirations :
Nine hundred and seventy-five days of secondary school, three hundred and ninety studying for those A-Levels; then what? University? For most of us we don’t realise University is a part of the journey as much as it is a destination for some, and the paths we take right now, in year 10, will help lead us into higher education and the world of work. I can confidently say I am no longer “most of us”, which I owe to the UCL Sutton Scholars and Horizons GCSE programme*.
