Format of event

This session is a general introduction to new students starting the LEAPS Transitions Course in 2025/26. Students (new S6 pupils) will receive an introductory lecture, taster tutorial, and 1:1 onboarding meetings. Your role will be in the sessions to socialise with the students to encourage conversations and take part in varying light-touch (and hopefully fun!) tasks to get them talking to each other and asking general questions about university as well helping to guide students around the buildings.
