Winterstoke students accepted into prestigious Exeter Scholars programme

Three outstanding Year 10 pupils at Winterstoke Hundred Academy have been accepted into the esteemed Exeter Scholars programme. This achievement highlights dedication and potential of Max, Victoria, and Oliwia, as they embark on an exciting educational journey.

Exeter Scholars is a free programme aimed at students in the South West from Year 9, and nationally from Year 10, through to Year 13, giving young people from across the country the opportunity to find out more about university, develop a passion for a chosen subject and gain first-hand experience of student life.

As part of the Exeter Scholars programme, Max, Victoria, and Oliwia will participate in a ‘pathway to university’ initiative. This will include attending lectures, engaging in application workshops, and experiencing a summer school at the University of Exeter. These activities are designed to prepare them for future academic success and inspire them to pursue higher education.

Emily Robinson, Head of Year 10, said: “We are thrilled that Max, Victoria, and Oliwia have been accepted into the Exeter Scholars programme. Their acceptance into this prestigious programme is a testament to their hard work and determination.

“We look forward to supporting them throughout their journey and are confident they will make the most of this incredible opportunity.”

The entire Winterstoke Hundred Academy community congratulates Max, Victoria, and Oliwia on their acceptance into the Exeter Scholars programme and wishes them continued success in their educational pursuits.
