Pre-16 Programmes
In the light of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, we have moved all of our residential programmes online, where we will deliver engaging and interactive academic content virtually, in keeping with current guidelines.
Every year, Trinity College runs a number of residential programmes for students and teachers, keen to explore their subject outside of school and experience what it would be like to study at a top university. Students stay in college accommodation, meet current students and have taster lectures, seminars and supervisions in a variety of subjects. They also have the opportunity to explore the city, and take part in a number of social activities during the week. The residentials are entirely free, including accommodation and all food, and funds are available to cover transport costs to and from Cambridge if necessary.

In this its second year we’re following on from last year’s brilliant response to the prompt ‘in common’, which saw us receive hundreds of creative, original submissions from young people all over the UK, with a new prompt announced by Trinity artist in residence, acclaimed author Ali Smith (which you can discover below).
