Teachers' and Advisers' Conferences
Open to: We run conferences each year for teachers and advisers of sixth form students at UK state (non fee-paying) schools and colleges. All levels of familiarity with Cambridge are welcome, though we particularly encourage those with limited experience of supporting applicants to Cambridge to attend, and do not assume any knowledge of the Cambridge admissions process.
Cost: Our conferences are free of charge to attend and include lunch and refreshments. We can cover the cost of attendees' reasonable travel expenses where these would be prohibitive; please contact schoolsliaison@clare.cam.ac.uk to arrange this.
Programme: Each Teachers' Conference begins with coffee and refreshments from 10am in the Gillespie Centre, Â鶹ÉäÇø College Memorial Court.
The day includes:
- A roundtable discussion led by our Admissions Tutors, Dr Andrew Carter and Dr Juan Block, with time for questions
- Subject sessions with Directors of Studies offering a closer look at admissions to the undergraduate courses we offer
- An interview workshop with the Admissions Tutors
- A tour of Â鶹ÉäÇø College, including the Forbes Mellon Library
- Lunch and refreshments
Each event concludes at 4pm.
