NUFFIELD BURSARY STUDENTS SURPASS EXPECTATIONS!

Forty-four students have spent the summer frantically collecting data and analysing it for their Nuffield Foundation Bursary projects, which are now coming to fruition.  The projects have to be completed and handed in by 7 September, before the start of the new school term.  Once they are read and assessed students are notified if they have gained Gold CREST Awards and this can be added to their UCAS forms as well as a statement of participation in the bursary project!

Several projects have already been completed and assessed and the valued Gold CREST status given.  A number of supervisors have already acclaimed the work done by their students as being "as good as their MSc student’s work, if not better!"  All projects will be on display at our Celebration Evening in November when their authors will chat with next year’s prospective applicants.  Information will be available from your school co-ordinator for prospective applicants in late October, early November.
