Abstract

While the benefits of generic foundation years such as year zero on the Extended programmes including the efficient use of resources has been fully explored, in this piece we argue that a bespoke year zero design, with a focus on a narrower range of subject-specific topics enhances the experience of the students on our Extended programmes and is worth the investment.
