Supporting your students
At Kent, we believe that university should be available to anyone with the drive and determination to succeed. As teachers, advisers and higher education providers, we have a shared purpose to inspire and support students to find and shape their place in the world.
Our Inspire Ambition Conference has been developed exclusively for teachers and advisers working with Level 3 students and is an excellent professional development opportunity to stay updated on topical issues in higher education, get the latest insights on university admissions and develop your network of fellow professionals.
