Y12 Progression Week

Every year, Cowley Sixth Form College Year 12 students take part in a Progression Week.

Progression Week takes the form of:

  • University Day featuring a fair with universities from around the UK, university-based sessions and talks as well as a session around UCAS applications
  • Apprenticeship and Employer Day featuring a fair of local apprenticeship providers and employers from a wide range of different industries plus talks and sessions about apprenticeships and industry-based topics
  • Mock Interview Day – each student sits a mock interview with a professional to help them prepare for university or employment interviews
  • Two days of work experience – each student partakes in a work placement for two days to gain valuable experience in a workplace
