Guide to Making Choices
The majority of our students aim for University (and our students apply to a very broad spectrum of universities and courses) whilst others apply for apprenticeships and jobs. One size definitely does not fit all. Our aim is to help you decide upon the future that works best for you and then support you in making that a reality.
Our experienced team ensures every student has access to high quality advice, guidance and support. Our dedicated Careers Progression Manager plays a central role in supporting students to make informed choices through one to one interviews, setting up individual and year group work experience, and informing students of careers opportunities.
Year 13 students will attend the annual UCAS and apprenticeship conference fair; they will participate in a week long work experience, and will experience talks form external visitors throughout their time in Sixth Form.
Students can also take advantage of practice interviews. This combination gives everyone exposure to a wide range of future options and support in getting there. Those students who aspire to go to the most competitive universities or who wish to apply for medicine, dentistry or veterinary sciences can also take advantage of the early applicant group to support them in learning to take university entrance exams.
Whether your target is university, apprenticeships or work we have the resources and expertise to help you make the right choice.
