Rebecca Dowbiggin

Educated at both the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford, Rebecca has worked as a freelance Education Consultant for over fifteen years. She has cultivated a deep and comprehensive understanding of the current structures and prospective reform of university admissions in both the UK and international contexts.

For William Clarence Education, Rebecca provides advisory services regarding university admissions assessments: statements, tests and interviews. Rebecca graduated with Distinction from the University of Oxford (MSc in Educational Assessment), and continues to develop her pedagogical practice and align her approach to admissions assessments with the latest in educational research.

Each year she supervises a select number of our students, specialising in supporting those in pursuit of places at top-tier universities and in the competitive, vocational fields of Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Medicine. Informed by her postgraduate research, which considered the impact of the university admissions process on student motivation, Rebecca works to build on students’ academic strengths and support their wellbeing, helping them to develop in confidence as independent and determined applicants.
