Next steps -

·        Every September Mr Wilmot will begin to see each Year 11 student for a 1 to 1 to talk about their plans and ideas. Appointment slots are distributed via tutors.

·        Each student will receive an action plan and prospectuses.

Points to note -

·        Applications will need to be done online. We do not recommend using phones.

·        The 6th forms would like applications in by Christmas.

·        Colleges are a little more flexible but would like applications in sooner rather than later.

·        When applying, please do not use student Email addresses as a means of contact. The school spam filter may not allow Emails with interview information through!

·        Attend your interview at the agreed time…most likely a phone conversation.

·        Don’t forget that you can apply for several courses with different colleges and 6th forms and make your final mind up later in the summer.

·        It is the student and the family's responsibility to complete and submit college and 6th form applications, M Wilmot is available to support the application process.

Good luck!

Mr Wilmot
