Career Advice

It’s when that time arrives that things start to get serious and sometimes complicated. It’s the time when our children make one of the most important decisions of their lives. Planning ahead will significantly make your lives less complicated and stressful. Steps which will facilitate your child’s future:

1. Book an appointment with the Educational Advisor when your child is around 13 years old to discuss his future selection of courses or to do a personality test which will help their selection.
2. It is also very important to discuss their IGCSE and A Level path which will lead them to the universities of their choice in the country of their choice.
3. It is also essential to have in mind that the applications in England (UCAS Applications) must be submitted the latest on the 15th of January, before the commencement of each academic year (boys can send their application during the first year of their military service as a deferred entry) so that positions at the university are reassured well in advance.
