• Open Days
•  - The University's Subject Masterclasses offer Y12 students an opportunity to experience typical undergraduate teaching and to find out more about what it's like to be a student here. Each event includes two subject-specific sessions (including a mini lecture and an interactive, workshop-style session), an introduction to the admissions process and a Q&A session with current staff and students. Please note that advance booking is essential for these events and there is a cost to attend. Funded places are available for eligible students.

• 'Why Not Languages?' resources
  • The Faculty organises and delivers a number of events for schools (mainly in the East of England) with low participation in Higher Education, to promote transition and progression from KS3 to KS4, from KS4 to Sixth Form, and from Sixth Form into studying languages at university level. As part of the project, we have created a range of resources - for use in the classroom or individually - to inspire pupils to include languages amongst their subject choices at each transition point.
• ������Ƶ Collaborative A level Resources for Languages (CCARL)
  • CCARL is a series of short videos recorded in the target language on texts set for French and German A levels. These resources can be used by teachers as part of classroom-based activities and also for students' independent learning and revision in time for A-level (or equivalent) examinations. The videos are intended to be used for educational purposes only. There is a  on the MMLL YouTube Channel.
