Tailored Work Experience
No matter which Pathway option you choose, our Work Experience Programmes are designed to give you authentic, highly beneficial, tailored work experience, all intended to enhance your UCAS application and practical skills.
STRIVE Programme
To support our Pathways model, our elite STRIVE programme provides you with access to industry experts and Higher Education partners.
Throughout this programme, you can access support in writing your UCAS personal statement, CV, completing application forms and rehearsing job and university interview skills.
