About Us

Gr8choice

Gr8choice is a site for the young people of Devon, Cornwall and West Somerset and for anyone who is involved in supporting them in their decision to aim for higher education.

We want to create a place where young people can access useful information on higher education. On gr8choice, you can find out what higher education is, why it is a great idea to go and how you can go about getting in. On the site, we also hope young people will contribute their own ideas, dreams, worries and experiences and, of course, ask lots of questions.

Higher education is a life changing opportunity which we believe all young people should have the opportunity to choose so this site is about supporting young people to make a gr8choice and aim for higher education!

Aimhigher Peninsula Programme

'Higher education for all’ is our motto and at the heart of all our activity. We are a partnership made up of organisations throughout Cornwall, Devon and West Somerset including schools, further education and higher education institutions, community groups, government offices, local authorities, training providers, Connexions and employers.

The Programme’s main aim is to widen participation in higher education. Aimhigher targets people who are underrepresented in higher education and who have no tradition of higher education in their families and are less likely to consider HE as an option. To make higher education a really possibility for these groups and individuals, we aim to:

  • Raise levels of awareness

  • Raise aspirations

  • Contribute to raising levels of achievement

  • Reach key influencers

  • Build on existing links and routes into higher education.
