Destinations Information
Students in the Sixth Form are carefully guided through the whole process of university/careers applications. Early on, Sixth Formers receive extensive tuition whilst also having access to an excellently stocked Careers and Higher Education library.
For UCAS applications, once the student is ready, they then work closely with their tutors, Sixth Form staff, the Head of Year 13 and the Director of Sixth Form in ensuring they submit the very best university application form they can. A first class careers guidance service is also available to any student who wishes to enter a career when leaving the Sixth Form. The aim of the School is that all students will leave well equipped for the next stage of their lives, whether it is university, a job or a ‘gap year’.
