Guidance for teachers and support staff
Support your learners to access the First Generation Programme.
Talks and events
We promote the First Generation programme to Year 12 learners throughout the academic year, from September – July.
This is mainly delivered via talks and stands held on your campus. If you’re interested in inviting us to talk to your students about the programme, please contact us on firstgeneration@mmu.ac.uk. Where possible, we bring First Generation Ambassadors (current students) to talk about their own experience.
Application window
We usually stay open for applications from Year 12 students throughout the academic year, but may close earlier if we become over-subscribed. Our advice is to apply as early as possible.
Get in touch
Contact us
If you have any queries about the programme or the specific circumstances of any of your students, you may find the answer in our FAQ section.
If you have any other questions, or would like to arrange for us to visit your campus to promote the programme to your students, please contact us on firstgeneration@mmu.ac.uk).
