This CPD session is part of a series of research dissemination events, designed for both practitioners and strategic leaders, with the aim of supporting your work with groups of learners typically underrepresented in HE.
The Toolkit stems from the research report - ‘Supporting White Boys from Working Class Backgrounds in West Yorkshire’ which has now been published and presents the experiences of these learners (and their parents/carers) in relation to education generally, and
their attitudes towards, and opportunities for progression to, HE.
