Transitions

Students go through huge transitions during high school and college, as each year they are given more responsibility and encouraged to become independent. These activities are designed to support transitions at key stages through school and onto Higher Education.

Shaping Futures are able to support your learners at these key transitional stages. If you would like us to deliver sessions to support learners with their transitions, please contact your HEPA or use our booking form.

Get Prepared!

Being ready (mentally and physically!) for change is an important part of transitioning to a new year or type of study. This section talks through practical advice for getting started. We also offer delivery for improving mental preparedness in our Confidence and Resilience section.

Student Accommodation

These resources will help learners to think about the decisions they need to make when it comes to choosing where to live at university.

Student Support

Universities and Colleges have ample support available to their students, but sometimes it can be difficult to know where to find them. Services are known by different names at each institution, and it's not always clear what the service offers.

With this in mind Shaping Futures have produced a 'Student Support Glossary' designed to clarify what support services do and the kind of things they offer.

We hope this helps you and your students to be able to navigate support services, but do get in touch with your HEPA if you'd like more information on this topic.

Student Minds

Student Minds is the UK's leading student mental health charity. They empower the university community to thrive in higher education.

These resources provides an overview of what to expect at university and how to prepare.

Topics include academic study, money management and finding support.
