The intention behind a pre-16 campus tour is to show students what is on offer at University in general. This is not a recruitment exercise. It is a chance for them to get to talk to an ambassador in an informal way and a chance for them to pick up information about University. These should be fun and energetic, with you continually talking to different members of the group, putting the students at ease. Where possible we give students iPad on the tour so they can take photos, that we can see at the end of the day. Inform the students that no Photos will be kept or used and all will be deleted at the end of the day.
-
- Introduce yourself to the group, explain your course, year group and why you chose to go to university and Brighton specifically
- Explain the tour will last approximately 35 minutes and involves some walking but that they will each have their own job to do and facts to find out on the way.
- Allocate roles to pupils (researcher, navigator, explorer and photographer) and give them their resources (ipad to photographer ect)
- Remember to relax, smile and be positive! Always engage with your whole group even when walking. DO NOT JUST WALK BETWEEN PLACES – keep talking to the group, asking them questions getting to know what they like, keep it fun
- Please do not be negative the simplest of comments can be misconstrued.
