Welcome to our virtual Sixth Form and College Careers room. Here you will find links to our Laurus Sixth Forms, along with a range of local colleges and education providers to explore when considering your next steps post-16.
There are lots of opportunities in the local area. Most Laurus students take the Sixth Form or College route to do A Levels or BTECs. Some students may study vocational courses at college, including BTECs and other vocational qualifications, while others may follow the apprenticeship route.
You should explore all the options available to you, and we recommend you apply to at least three places, even if one is just a back-up plan. You can make your final decision after you receive your GCSE results.
