June 16th, 2015: UCAS Evening
This year’s UCAS Evening is primarily aimed at parents of students in Year 12, but parents and students in Year 11 will also be invited.
Supported by Oxbridge Applications, an international consultancy that specialises in applications to Oxford, Cambridge, Medical and Law schools, Co-Principal John Wilson will be holding a seminar on the university application process and how students can prepare effectively in order to put forward the best possible application. Mr. Wilson has particular expertise in preparing students for Science and Medical Science degree programmes, stemming from his time in undergraduate Medical Science admissions for Imperial College London and University College London.
In making the transition from secondary to tertiary education, students have a number of difficult decisions to make. This seminar focuses on how to make informed and fulfilling choices about which courses and universities to apply to, what the application processes involve and how best students can prepare to make a strong application.

April 21st, 2015: Year 11 Parents’ Seminar
This event is primarily for parents of students in Year 11 who will be choosing their A Level subjects.
Co-principal John Wilson will run a presentation and seminar on how students can make the best A Level choices for particular careers. Drawing upon his extensive experience in university admissions at top London universities Imperial College and University College London, Mr. Wilson will offer expert guidance on which A Level combinations will provide a strong platform for applying to specific university courses.
The seminar will also be an opportunity for parents to understand and evaluate the changes to the A Level system and how these might affect students about to begin Year 12. Many of our teachers will be available at the event to offer subject-specific advice on choosing subjects and to discuss the content of their subjects at A Level.
