Careers Support
A key element of The Grange School experience that separates us from other schools is our dedicated and knowledgeable careers team.
WE BELIEVE IN SUPPORTING OUR students, not just when they reach Sixth Form, from the moment they start Senior School. This helps to feed our students’ ambitions and encourages them to feel confident and excited about what their futures hold after The Grange.
Careers Support at the Sixth Form
IN THE SIXTH FORM, THE careers team guide students through the UCAS process, but also have specialists who can advise on a wide range of alternative pathways:
- Applying to an overseas university.
- Targeting a Year in Industry.
- Taking up an apprenticeship opportunity ('earn as you learn').
- Join an Insight into University programme.
- Applying to read Medicine, Veterinary Science or Dentistry.
- Completing an Oxbridge application.
In addition, The Grange hosts a bi-annual Careers Conference with over 85 delegates. Students and parents are invited to attend this conference. |
Modern career planning is much less linear nowadays and many young people do not take a ‘traditional’ route into careers. We believe it’s so important for students to understand the breadth and variety of careers and not feel limited in their choices nor the path they take – this conference is designed to allow our young people to explore possibilities by speaking to professionals from range of disciplines with a wealth of experience.
