Abstract

Formed in November 2002, the S6 Enhancement Unit aims to support the learning of young people studying for Advanced Higher courses by working in partnership with local schools. Where schools were unable to offer S6 students all their choices of subject at this level, it was suggested that studying one subject at the University of Aberdeen might address this need. Students who opted for this route would be able to learn within the familiar surroundings of their own school, usually close to home, while studying a new subject and getting a taste of university life.
