AFRO-BRIT PRE-UNIVERSITY SUMMER SCHOOL
From High School to University: Building the Next Generation of African Leaders
Prepare. Discover. Lead.
Overview
The Afro-Brit Pre-University Summer School is a transformative three-day academic and leadership programme designed to prepare high school students and recent secondary school graduates for a successful transition to university and beyond.
