Host Darren Ellis is back with a new panel of experts to discuss the transition from school to university in the context of COVID-19.

Darren is joined by:

  • Clare Marchant, chief executive officer of UCAS
  • Wayne Templeman, director of sixth form at St Bonaventure School
  • James Greenwood, student experience manager at University of the Arts and chair of CUBO residential life & student experience
  • Jo Blair, area manager at Unite Students and ASRA regional representative for Scotland
