University Preparation

The Lower Sixth students have undertaken an extensive program of preparation for applying to university throughout the last academic year. 
Amongst other events, students have:
Had talks from Admissions Tutors from Aberystwyth and Oxford Universities.
Visited the Higher Education Fair in Manchester.
Completed a University Coursefinder Questionnaire.
Had talks from career professionals from the Connexions Service and the Head of a London Law school.
Partaken in a university preparation day.
Visited Edge Hill University.

Students will continue to receive personal guidance throughout the next few months and they will hopefully join the many students who have been successful with their university applications in the recent past.

The photos show the students on their visit to Edge Hill.
