Y12 Parents Information Evening - Post 18 Options
Thank you to all the parents who attended the Year 12 Parents' Information Evening to learn more about Post-19 options. During the evening we discussed applying to university, applying for apprenticeships, wellbeing and what to expect from Year 13. You can download a copy of the presentation shown in the evening below.
Please remind your child to read through the Sixth Form Notes, a fortnightly newsletter that outlines opportunities for apprenticeships, work experience, university open days and school events. These are sent to each student via email and are archived on our website here.
We also recommend that parents and carers take a loo at the Parents' Guide to University 2026. This guide features practical advice from more than 80 universities and education experts. You will be able to find information about open day travel scholarships, how to access student finance, advice on UCAS personal statements, tips from current university students and more.
