Widening participation is important to us and is firmly embedded in how we run our University. We are committed to ensuring talented students from all backgrounds can benefit from a University of Manchester education – there should be no barriers to studying and no boundaries to learning.

Our new annual report on widening participation for 2017/18 showcases examples of our work to widen participation across the student lifecycle. The report includes a range of case studies and their impact from our monitoring and evaluation evidence – it also highlights where we have received local or national recognition for the work we do.
