Fair Access Programme Lead, UCAS

Biography

Ellie joined UCAS in October 2021 to lead on the Fair Access Programme, supporting students from underrepresented backgrounds to access the post-secondary education, apprenticeship, or training option that is right for them. Her role includes working collaboratively with the widening participation and fair access sector to identify opportunities and develop services for UCAS to add value to the support already given to disadvantaged and underrepresented students.

 

Prior to joining UCAS, Ellie was a Partnerships Manager at DANCOP, a Uni Connect partnership based at the University of Derby. In this role she developed partnerships with universities, FE Colleges and a number of third sector organisations including Causeway Education, Brightside and The Access Project. She has also worked for Into University, a leading charity, operating a place based model of supporting young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to attain a university place or other chosen aspiration. Outside of work Ellie is a trustee of NEON (National Education Opportunities Network).
