Outreach

UAL believes that widening participation to art and design higher education is essential for the future of our creative industries and society as a whole.

UAL Insights is the University’s outreach programme which offers young people access to our Colleges for creative activities and pre-university advice and guidance.

Not everyone has equal opportunity to enter higher education. We want to change this through UAL Insights.

We work with partner schools and FE colleges in Greater London to offer students at pre-16 and post-16 level access to creative programmes that will help to develop their skills and experience as young creatives.

UAL Insights activities are run by the Outreach team and take place across UAL’s 6 Colleges.
