The Flagpole

If you are a parent of a Lower Sixth student and are trying to support them with the overwhelming choice available to them, then this guide might help here.

If you missed my presentation at our recent Higher Education Parents Evening then you can find it here 

For individual queries or guidance about anything to do with university applications, gap years or applying for apprenticeships and jobs, please contact me directly via email.

I'm always happy to meet parents on Teams.

Head of Careers

Many thanks for your help over the past year or so in helping your son/daughter find some work experience; I do hope it has been beneficial, as it can help so much with career, reference and course planning in the future. This last two years has, of course, been rather difficult with the COVID situation, but there have been over 90 placements arranged, and a lot completed, which is great.

If you have already let me know of a placement (either to come this summer or which has already taken place) then I already have the details and have sent out the relevant paperwork. If you have recently arranged a placement and haven’t forwarded the details, please could you let me know and I can then confirm and forward the necessary forms?

Once again, thank you for your continued support.

Kind regards

Mike Taylor
Work Experience Co-ordinator
