Mrs Whitehead, Director of Sixth Form Studies, said: “It was so lovely to welcome back Old Edwardians from KEHS and KES from all areas across the UK and hear about their experiences of university. There was a tremendous atmosphere and our current students were grateful for the opportunity to talk about different aspects of university life to help their preparation for the excitement of what lies ahead.
“These events are a great way for our Old Edwardians to offer their advice and wisdom to our students. I am looking forward to growing and building on these events over the coming years.”
