As we move closer to the end of Year 11, it is important to make the correct, informed decisions about what you would like to study next year and where this will be.

The Careers Programme for Year 11 involves students taking part in a Virtual Careers talk, receiving assemblies from a variety of different Post 16 establishments  regarding what courses they offer. Year 11 students will then receive a 1 to 1 Careers Interview followed by support with their College Applications. We have an expectation that all students make 2 applications.

Following this, students will receive further support if needed to ensure that all applications are completed before they move into their exam season.

College Applications

The way that students apply for College courses is via the Careers East Sussex website. Students will have received an email with their log in details. If you can find this please contact your tutor. Please see the attached below which shows a step by step guide of how to complete the applications.

The only exception to this is if you are applying to Ark Alexandra Sixth Form at https://arkalexandra.org/sixth-form.
