University & Careers

Sixth Form pupils at PGS are given outstanding support and advice to help them achieve their aspirations.

Approaching 90% of pupils win a place at their first or insurance choice university and we have frequent success in helping our pupils secure offers for prestigious degree apprenticeship schemes with organisations such as Dyson, Rolls Royce and Unilever. Each pupil is assigned a Specialist Subject Advisor who will advise and guide pupils through the application process. Our dedicated Careers and Universities Department coordinate the process and organise hugely valuable events such as our annual universities fair where over forty institutions and training providers are represented.

A committed, supportive programme, comprising extensive individual support, is dedicated to ensuring that our pupils’ university applications are as strong as they can be.
