RICHMOND SIXTH FORM COLLEGE STUDENTS VISIT TEESSIDE UNIVERSITY FOR UCAS DISCOVERY EVENT

Year 12 students from Richmond Sixth Form College visited the annual UCAS Discovery event at Teesside University recently where they had the opportunity to meet over 100 Universities, colleges and apprenticeship providers.

The UCAS events form an integral part of our Sixth Form Careers programme and the value to students of meeting providers in person is something we have always believed in. Students had the opportunity to ask questions about courses and qualifications, as well as find out more information about pathways in a wide variety of careers.

Ruth Hamer, Careers Adviser, said: “The UCAS events are always great: a really invaluable opportunity for students to get more information directly from the providers themselves. It is so important to bring career pathways and options to life and the UCAS Discovery events are a great way to do this for our Year 12 students. Thank you to Teesside University for another well-organised, informative event.”

Thank you also to the Richmond School Trustees who kindly funded the travel costs to support our Year 12 students with their careers’ education.
