Pupils can select their own personal tutor to help support them throughout their journey. All pupils take part in a dedicated Careers Week aimed at informing them of the options available. They will also receive guidance on how to write an effective CV, embark on a number of formal interviews and listen to representatives from universities, gap year providers, school leaver programmes and apprenticeships. Throughout the year, all sixth formers take part in a weekly lecture programme, which gives them the opportunity to hear from a diverse range of speakers.
