This term, the focus will be on your Applications and Next Steps. It is crucial that you engage with the content from Terms 1 and 2 as it provides you with the information you need to make informed choices about your future.
If you need support, you can do any of the following:
1) For in-person support with your Personal Statement (including feedback!) or the UCAS process, you can go the UCAS Drop-in Sessions- see here: UCAS Drop-in
2) You can email Futures@stbrn.ac.uk (for the Futures coordinator) or Ceiag@stbrn.ac.uk (for careers) if you have any questions that you'd like a response to over email
3) You can book a Careers Appointment here
4) You can speak to your subject teachers or Academic Mentor who will help point you in the right direction for the best support
Please see this video for info on the Careers Fair coming to college on Tuesday 23rd November 2021. This will include visits from Universities, Colleges, Employers and Apprenticeship providers so it's a really great opportunity for you to explore your options and ask questions.
This term's content will not be split into weeks. Instead, you can scroll down for useful information and links relating to Applications, Online Courses, UCAS, Personal Statement guidance, Interview Technique, and more.
If there is something you need support with which you can't find here, please let us know on Futures@stbrn.ac.uk and we will look into adding it for you!
