REPORTS
LIFE INTERRUPTED!
NEW! Life Interrupted! Report 8.
Originally launched back in March 2020, our Life Interrupted study set out to track the impact of the pandemic on the lives and education of Year 12 and Year 13 students. Now, two years on, students in this study are out of the ‘worst’ of the pandemic, but given the disruption they have faced to their education, it is clear the long-term impact of the pandemic is still being felt today.
Download the 8th edition in our report series now for insight into the student perspective and how best to support and communicate with them over the coming months.

2021 Report
Life Interrupted! Report 7.
After our ‘final’ report in October 2020, we believed that we were on the path out of the pandemic. Clearly this did not turn out to be the case. Instead, A-level students in England will have spent much of the 2020/21 academic year in some version of lockdown, with only a limited amount of classroom time. With this in mind, in 2021 we decided to reopen our Life Interrupted study for a short time, in order to speak to students about their experiences over the last academic year, and how it has affected their outlook regarding university decision-making and beyond.

Life Interrupted! Report 4.
In the fourth report of our Life Interrupted! insight series, we look at how students are ‘rating’ university websites, their expectations and experiences of virtual events and their latest hopes for university, given the strong likelihood that the Autumn term (at least) will be conducted virtually.

Life Interrupted! Report 5.
In our fifth instalment of Life Interrupted!, our central theme is ‘safety’. We explore attitudes to physical safety and how this is influencing university preferences. We examine how lockdown has impacted personal or household financial security and how this is playing into university decision-making. And we get to hear reactions to recent Clearing developments and see whether these are providing a greater sense of security in terms of university admission.

Life Interrupted! Report 6.
Our sixth instalment of Life Interrupted! has been prepared in two distinct parts. In part 1, we take a look back at what happened to our community over the summer, and what their expectations were as they transitioned to the current academic year. In part 2, we look at how the pandemic has impacted the attitudes and beliefs of young people, and what the implications are for both universities and employers.
