Future pathways (Swindon)
What is Future Pathways?
Future Pathways is a free programme that has been run in partnership with Swindon virtual school since 2021. It helps care experienced young people in years 9-12 learn about all the educational pathways available to them after they leave school. It also gives them the opportunity to socialise with other young people in similar circumstances.
This year we have two new partners, Oxford Brookes University and Royal Agricultural University, who have come on board to make sure this year’s programme is better than ever!
How much does it cost?
Future Pathways is completely FREE to attend, including transport and all refreshments.
