Welcome to Aimhigher Birmingham and Solihull. Aimhigher is an initiative to increase the number of young people entering Higher Education and attract individuals from groups in society who are currently under-represented. It will help to ensure that those with the potential to benefit from higher education do so.

Aimhigher will make a difference for young people:

• Who are the first in their family to consider higher education
• From lower income families and disadvantaged communities
• From minority ethnic heritage backgrounds groups
• With disabilities and/or learning difficulties
• In, or leaving the care system
