Sixth Form Students Explore Post-18 Options at UCAS Discovery Event
During the last week of term, our Sixth Form students attended the UCAS Discovery event at the London Excel. The event brought together universities, colleges, employers, and apprenticeship providers, giving students the opportunity to explore all their post-18 options in one place.
At the event, students were able to:
- Chat with representatives from universities and colleges about courses and university life.
- Speak to employers and apprenticeship providers about apprenticeships and career pathways.
- Receive guidance from qualified careers advisers about their future.
- Attend talks from experts in their fields and get dedicated support from UCAS specialists on the next steps for their education and careers.
The aim of the event was to help students make informed decisions about their next steps after Sixth Form.
