Primary education activities
We are keen to support Year 6 pupils with the sometimes-difficult transition period from primary to secondary school.
Move on Up Day
We have designed the Move on Up Day with the aim to make students feel excited about their future, and understand what a university is and does, whilst encouraging them to excel in secondary education and beyond.
As part of the Move on Up day, students will discover more about university life by exploring our campus, attending a lecture, and getting a chance to ask lots of questions to our current undergraduates.
Theatre company 2Engage will deliver an interactive theatre performance that introduces the changes pupils will face as they embark on their educational journey. They will also address some common concerns about secondary school and showcase the opportunities available to them.
The next Move on Up day will take place in the 2023 Summer Term. To enquire about booking places on the programme, please contact Senior Outreach Officer Alice McGowan a.v.mcgowan@bham.ac.uk.
Additional opportunities for primary schools
Beside Move on Up Day (pictured), we also offer opportunities for primary school pupils to get involved in on an ad-hoc basis like Merck's Curiosity Cube.
