Working with Schools. Our Young Applicants in Schools Scheme (YASS) allows students in the final year of secondary school to experience higher education level study in school alongside their other subjects and enhance their career prospects. Students can choose from a range of high quality modules at SCQF Level 7, giving them opportunity to broaden their knowledge of their Higher and Advanced Higher subjects or to try a topic which is not available in school. Experience of independent, degree level study and access to all OU student facilities, including personal tutors and our renowned online library, helps to prepare pupils for the transition to university or college. Extra study can help school-leavers’ UCAS applications to stand out and they can also use the credit they gain towards a qualification with the OU. YASS is to be included on Insight (the Scottish Government benchmarking tool for the senior phase) and can be added to UCAS forms as another qualification. Since its introduction in Scotland as a pilot with Highland Council in 2007/08, YASS has grown so that over 100 schools throughout Scotland and over 700 pupils have participated in 2014/15 to date. YASS has proved to be a very attractive addition to many schools, particularly smaller ones, those in remote areas and with limited numbers staying on to S6, that encounter difficulties in providing breadth of choice for their pupils. The OU in Scotland welcomed the support of the Scottish Funding Council to extend YASS and to increase use of the scheme in SHEP schools. As a result of the YASS+ Project, we are working towards a target of 25 SHEP schools participating in YASS. To date 29 SHEP schools have participated in YASS. 18 SHEP schools are participating in YASS in 2014-15 which is an increase of 38% on the previous year. The interim figure for the number of pupils from SHEP schools has tripled in 2014-15 from the previous year. SFC funding for the YASS+ Project has enabled the OU to provide an interim solution for school pupils to fund studying OU modules but a long term solution is still being sought. The Scottish Government is conducting a review of the Part-time Xxx Xxxxx with the view of reporting by July 2015 and a decision being made regarding the eligibility of YASS students in time for AY 2016-17. Through the Outcome Agreement, The OU in Scotland is therefore asking the Scottish Funding Council to extend its provision by meeting the costs of YASS module fees for the interim period of 2015-16.

Working with Schools. 5.1 AUB acknowledges the importance of structured, targeted work with schools and colleges to support student engagement, aspiration and attainment within creative disciplines. We identify specific schools and colleges with whom we undertake collaborative work. The University has a policy of targeting schools and colleges which have a high proportion of non-traditional students, a low conversion to higher education, and a strong portfolio within the creative arts. Target schools and colleges are reviewed annually, based on indices of disadvantage which may include: POLAR 3 (LPN 1), percentage receiving fee school meals; percentage achieving 5+ A*-C GCSEs (or equivalent) including English and maths.
