9 WIDENING PARTICIPATION IN OUTWARD MOBILITY Report and toolkit to support increased participation in mobility programmes by students from disadvantaged and underrepresented backgrounds.

10 STUDENT GROUPS Students from low socio-economic backgrounds Students from low participation neighbourhoods Black and Minority Ethnic Students Disabled Students Care experienced students

11 EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES 2018 Black students: 4.2% Asian students: 5.5% Disabled students: 6.1% Less-advantaged students: 5.1% Low participation students: 4.3% Care leavers: 1.2% Av. 7.2% Part-time students: 0.4% Mature students: 3.3% First in Family: 5.0%

12 MULTIPLE BARRIERS AND OVERLAPPING IDENTITIES Intersectionality: The interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, class, and gender as they apply to a given individual or group, regarded as creating overlapping and interdependent systems of discrimination or disadvantage

13 MOBILITY LOCATION Top 9 countries visited by students from disadvantaged groups reflected the national pattern Europe: France, Spain, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands English speaking: United States, Canada, Australia Asia: China

14 MOBILITY PROGRAMME Across all the target groups the majority of students were taking part in either Erasmus+ or a provider led programme. BME students were more likely to undertake a period of mobility as part of a provider led programme.

15 MOBILITY DURATION Students from target groups were all more likely to undertake short-term mobility than their peers.

16 WHAT MIGHT BE THE BARRIERS TO GOING ABROAD FOR STUDENTS FROM LESS- ADVANTAGED BACKGROUNDS?

17 FOCUS GROUP FINDINGS: BARRIERS AND IMPACT

18 It provided a completely new perspective on all aspects of life. It gave me the confidence to know that I can live and work independently. It s literally changed everything for me

19 GOOD PRACTICE Student mentor scheme Summer Internships Disability Team leading Expanded marketing activities Intercultural Competencies Module CV workshops Targeted funding Dedicated support roles Leadership programmes Ambassador scheme

20 Activities Help students prepare for their mobile experience Training design follows a researchbased intercultural competency growth model, developed by academic colleagues at the university Outcomes Numbers have grown from 44 in 2014 to 350 students in 2017.

21 Activities Risk assessment Pre-visits Work shadow to international institutions Review of reasonable adjustments Outcomes Disability service have supported 20 disabled students Staff within the disability service visited six countries

22 Activities 1,000 or 500 grant Students commit to becoming an ambassador whilst abroad and when they return Grants are flexible - increased where there is need Outcomes Students who go abroad receive better degrees Improvement in students' experience

23 TOOLKIT RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Take a whole institution approach 2. Be student-led 3. Offer short-term mobility opportunities 4. Foster academic engagement 5. Provide targeted funding 6. Expand marketing activities 7. Involve parents and guardians 8. Applications and interviews 9. Start preparations early 10. Establish a mobile student network 11. Deliver expert support 12. Offer language learning 13. Deliver post-mobility activities 14. Create an ambassador scheme 15. Introduce a buddy scheme

24 WHAT GOOD PRACTICE IS IN PLACE AT YOUR OWN INSTITUTION WHICH SUPPORTS STUDENTS TO GO ABROAD? WHAT MORE CAN BE DONE TO SUPPORT STUDENTS TO TAKE PART IN MOBILITY PROGRAMMES?

25 DIGITAL TOOLKIT go-international/stand-out/pages/toolkit.aspx

26 LOOKING FORWARD 1. Further examples of good practice for care leavers and BME students 2. Good practice on support for demographics outside of the scope of this project but who may face barriers in going abroad, including part time students, lesbian, gay and bisexual students, trans students, mature students and students with caring responsibilities. 3. Clarity on the extent to which short-term mobility results in positive outcomes.
