Higher and Further Education
The vast majority of our pupils go on to study at university, either directly from school or following a gap year, with 65% -70% of pupils gaining places at the top Russell Group universities, including Cambridge, Durham, Imperial College London, LSE, Oxford, University College London and Warwick.
Pupils are encouraged to visit universities and to attend University Fairs, both at the College and elsewhere. They are supported by the department to gather information on-line, using resources such as the powerful destination platform Unifrog and the UCAS Course Search website.
We offer advice about courses, university entrance procedures and interview techniques. Pupils are also kept informed about alternative pathways at 18+, such as sponsored degrees, degree apprenticeships, non-degree qualifications, school leavers’ programmes, apprenticeships and employment.
At all stages, the aim of the Careers & Higher Education Department is to help pupils make informed decisions about their future.
