    14. Headteacher quotes 2006-2007 “One to one mentoring has 'saved' certain students who might well have continued to dwell in the land of underachievement and demotivation. HE awareness raising activities have definitely brought the world of HE to a wider audience.” Northfleet School for Girls “The programme has raised self esteem amongst not only the students but also the staff and parents - being a member of Aimhigher has been a total success.” Swan Valley Community School “The 6th Form feel valued and in a socially deprived area advice for students and parents who have not considered University is essential. Parents and students are also extremely concerned about funding issues. Younger students have had taster sessions and support sessions to raise aspirations as the majority of our students will be 1st time HE students.”
