Access and Participation Plans

Access and Participation Plans (APPs) are strategies created by universities in the UK to improve educational access and success for underrepresented groups, such as students from low-income backgrounds or those with disabilities. These plans outline specific goals, initiatives, and resources aimed at increasing diversity and support for these students throughout their university experience. By addressing barriers to higher education, APPs aim to foster inclusivity and ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed academically and socially in a university environment.
