Full event details

HOW DO I TACKLE THE PERSONAL STATEMENT?

This session can be delivered either as a presentation or a workshop.

If delivered as a talk we will introduce the personal statement, discuss structure and how to approach it, and where possible include reviewing some examples.

We would recommend where possible this is delivered as a workshop, as we can facilitate activities to plan and write the statement as well as review examples in more depth.

Due to preferably delivering this in a classroom, we will usually deliver this workshop multiple times on the same day to cover the whole year group.
