Abstract

‘I would not have gone to university without King Edward College.’ Jamie, a second-year undergraduate studying for a business degree at Coventry University, is unequivocal with his words. The first person in his family to go to university, his achievements, and those of his peers, are the embodiment of an aspirational partnership between the college and the university aimed at promoting higher level study among students in the local area.
