Future Ready! is a virtual study skills and university preparation programme delivered by Homerton College aimed at students in Year 10/ S3, who are eager looking to push their study-skills and explore what it's like to think and learn like a university student.
The course consists of twice weekly virtual workshops on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5-6pm from 19th June to 12th July 2023.
