Admissions Game

When Martin was in the admissions team the government initiative at the time was 'widening participation' remember Tony Blaire in 1997 'Education - Education - Education'. Well the chief executive at that time took this to heart and between them they enrolled that many students, for a while they managed to get to be the 6th largest further education establishment in the country.

Also at this time Martin was practicing his programming skills and experimenting with a games programming suite 'The games factory'. He wrote the game attached in the zip file below which is a simulation of an enrolment room, an advice centre - mystery shoppers and all with a representation of the barriers to education and the enrolment process.

You can download and try the game if you wish, It's probably best to unzip it on to a memory stick and run it from there. (64 bit) users may need to start the programme in compatibility mode (try Windows 98 or 32bit XP).
