PPE Supercurriculars
What are some specific Supercurriculars I can do now. I plan on joining an essay competition and summers schools but other than that I don’t know. I also want to find my ‘niche’ in that subject. Any guides to online lecture series, in person opportunities etc.

Have a look at the suggestion on Cambridge's website - they are good for all unis:

for the politics/philosophy side of the course (not so much econ), there’s an online course on a website called “coursera” called “the moral foundations of politics” that includes a lot of really interesting lectures/readings on a range of political philosophies, including marxism, utilitarianism, the social contract and more. i spoke about it in my personal statement and it’s a great way to explore any interests in ppe you might have!!
i would say though, that because it’s more geared towards uni students, i found it a little too high-level at times for a-level, but it can still be a great springboard to discover future interests you might have in these areas.
