Events for Teachers and Advisers

ºÚÁÏÍø holds regular webinars and one in-person conference in Cambridge each year for teachers and advisers across the UK.

Dates for the 2025 webinars will be published on this page in January 2025.

Our conference will take place in the summer term 2025 and is open to teachers and advisers at UK state (non fee-paying) schools and colleges.

We would love to meet you at one of these events very soon.

Please contact Libby Beckett (Outreach and Admissions Officer, schoolsliaison@clare.cam.ac.uk) with any questions.

Visit ºÚÁÏÍø with your students

We run school visits to the College throughout the academic year. 

Most of our visits are for students in Years 10, 11, and 12, though we are happy to host visits for students from Year 7 to Year 12 and value the opportunity to work with younger students as well as those approaching GCSEs or A Levels. We primarily host visits for school groups from our link areas (please see Area Links Scheme below) and would recommend teachers at schools in other areas contact their link College in the first instance.

Teachers working at schools or colleges in Coventry, Warwickshire, or the London Boroughs of Hackney and Tower Hamlets are invited to use this page to arrange visits.

To learn more, please contact Emma Lézé (Schools Liaison Officer) at schoolsliaison@clare.cam.ac.uk

Area Links Scheme

The enables the Cambridge Colleges to build effective, coherent relationships with schools and colleges across the UK. It gives schools and colleges a direct way of staying in touch with the University by providing specific contact points and allows the Cambridge Colleges to get to know specific regions and the local educational environments.

ºÚÁÏÍø is linked with:

  • The London Borough of Tower Hamlets
  • The London Borough of Hackney
  • Coventry
  • Warwickshire

If you are a teacher or adviser in one of the regions above, please visit this page to learn more about how we can work together.

We are also linked with select Cambridgeshire schools as part of . As such, most of our school visits are from schools and colleges in the above Link Areas. 

However, regardless of their link areas, all Cambridge Colleges will provide guidance and listen to your perspectives to make Cambridge as accessible as possible to all students with the ability and potential to study here. Many of our online programmes, webinars and taster sessions are open to students at state schools across the UK. Eligibility criteria for every programme is stated on the corresponding webpages.                                                     

Please note that admissions decisions at each College are made independently of the Area Links Scheme. There is no expectation that students apply to their link College and any connection to a particular school does not influence whether Colleges invite applicants for interview or offer them places.
