We’re ready to help you explore a future full of opportunity. We’ll work with you to develop your skills, enhance your studies and shape your goals for the future.

We work with selected schools across Norfolk, and to take part in Future Forward you need to be nominated by your teacher. If you’ve found yourself reading this webpage and you haven’t been nominated by your teacher, have a chat with them to find out if you could take part or not.

As part of Future Forward, you’ll get:

Individual, tailored one-to-one and group sessions with one of our Student Learning Mentors

Support to develop skills such as adaptability, autonomy, communication, critical thinking, leadership and researching

Opportunities to socialise, build networks and collaborate with other Future Forward students

You could even receive a contextual offer from UEA if you decide you want to study with us. A contextual offer simply means you could be offered a place on a course with reduced entry requirements.

* Subject to course exclusions and terms and conditions.

Sounds great, right? Hear what our students said about their Future Forward journeys…

Future forward has provided a myriad of ways to help me improve skills that have enabled me to apply for university.
Year 12 Student

Future Forward has provided me with activities to do, such as the research project, that have meaning and are useful for me later on. It's helped me set goals and link what I'm doing to the skills I'm developing.
Year 10 Student

I feel like it's really helped me stand out as a student. And it's a comforting thing that I can rely on because if I want to work on something, such as a personal skill, then Future Forward would and could help me with that development.
Year 11 Student

Before I started the Future Forward scheme, I was really nervous and struggled with public speaking, so I knew I wanted to work on that and turn a weakness into a strength. And now after spending time working on it, I feel a lot more confident and actually really enjoy public speaking!
