KMPF Evaluation Where Ambassadors have come in to work regularly with some of our A level students, it has had a powerful, positive impact on their learning and attitudes to higher education. KMPF School Staff Member They were fun activities and I want to do it again! Student Year 9 It 's nice to talk to people who are at, or have been to University recently. Student Year 12 KMPF (Aimhigher) have been a vital part of our students life in the last 5 years and we have seen a 30% increase in our students deciding to stay on in and consider HE in the future. The work is paramount for a school like ours which is based in a highly social and economically deprived area. Head Teacher – Swan Valley School Talks in school are not always the most exciting for students; going to a university and getting a taste of the potential future is effective.
