Hi, and welcome from the Student Recruitment Team at UWS.  We cover Scotland and the Rest of the United Kingdom (RUK).  We are a well experienced team who have many existing relationships with key stakeholders within local authority schools. We are excited and about the prospect of working with new partners.  Our friendly team are here to make the transition from school to university as seamless as possible.
