What is Aimhigher Hertfordshire?
Aimhigher Hertfordshire is part of the national Aimhigher programme, which encourages young people with potential who would not normally consider Higher Education (HE) to ‘aim higher’. It aims to raise aspirations, widen horizons and create a greater skills base in the workplace.
The Aimhigher programme is jointly funded by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS).
The Government and HEFCE have allocated £239.5 million to the Aimhigher programme for 2008-2011 of which Hertfordshire has an allocation of around £1.94 million.
Aimhigher Hertfordshire is one of 6 area partnerships in the East of England, and is represented by relevant stakeholders and agencies in Hertfordshire who are committed to the development and promotion of a coherent and targeted programme of activities.
