About Us

Welcome to the Aimhigher Norfolk website.

Our website aims to signpost you to information about Higher Education, or HE for short.  You can also find out more about the Aimhigher team and the events that we run across Norfolk.  If you are a student who has been on an Aimhigher event recently, check our Photo Gallery page to see pictures of our events.

Aimhigher is a national, government-funded programme that helps young people to think about learning and training at a higher level, and makes them aware of the various progression routes that lead into HE at a university or college.

The Aimhigher Associates Scheme is a mentoring project which involves higher education students mentoring small groups of Year 10 and 11 Aimhigher students from a selection of Norfolk high schools.

As an Aimhigher Associate you will work with a specific group of Year 10 Learners (5-7 in group), visiting them regularly at their school, supporting them and getting to know them.  Associates will also engage in e-exchanges with their learners using the Brightlinks website.
