Tower Hamlets
Clare Partnership for Schools
Launched in 2000, Partnership for Schools is an initiative by Clare College Cambridge with the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, supported by KPMG, Clifford Chance and Morgan Stanley. Its aim is to encourage pupils to raise their expectations, and aim for the best in higher education.
Partnership for Schools is part of Clare’s wider commitment to raising aspirations among all young people and recruiting the most able students, irrespective of background. Partnership activities are offered for pupils at every stage of education, from Primary School to Sixth Form, and focus on supporting learning skills and helping pupils gain confidence in their potential.
Clare arranges events throughout the year, providing practical information about university education; interview training; mentoring; and opportunities to meet current students, and take part in specialist classes and ‘subject taster days’.
In these ways, Clare supports schools’ own efforts to encourage pupils to plan for university at an early stage, and to encourage the most able to consider applying to Cambridge.
