Student Stories


			Allum Bokhari, (A level student) The collaboration between BSix and Pembroke College Universiy of Oxford (Pem-Brooke) is innovative in its aims and methods. We aim to raise the educational aspirations of young people studying in Hackney and other boroughs in the East End. We want to demonstrate the academic potential of students from these areas by providing a specially designed programme of study that will prepare young people for undergraduate life at leading universities. As part of this programme students receive e- mentoring from university students, have the opportunity to visit Oxford University and live as Oxford students for a whole week in which they attend various seminars. An A level student from BSix , Allum Bokhari, took part in the Pem-Brooke Scheme last year and has this year been successful in receiving an offer from Oxford University! His story is proof of the success of the collaboration as it encourages students to aim high and flourish academically, equipping them with the necessary skills to progress to Higher Education and on into the world of work.
