A Level Bootcamp

A-level bootcamp

About the programme

The University of Warwick is committed to working with young people to maximise their academic potential. We are offering Year 13 students who are taking part in one of our access programmes, and predicted to achieve between A* to C grades the opportunity to participate in a free three day A Level Revision Bootcamp during the Easter holidays.

Participants will learn, revise and study one subject area intensively and we aim to provide a packed timetable, which will be constructive, valuable and enjoyable. Each day will be hosted at the University of Warwick, but sessions will be delivered by qualified teachers with vast experience in their subject areas.

The bootcamp is non-residential and will take place on The University of Warwick's campus. The bootcamp will take place on the 4th, 5th and 6th April 2023.

Applications for 2023 are now closed.
