Destinations
Most of the students in our 6th Form progress to undergraduate study; many to Russell Group universities, with Cardiff being a popular destination.
We also provide advice and support for other Post-18 pathways and have many students who progress onto the Armed Forces; Apprenticeships (including Degree Apprenticeships) and those who take a gap year before progressing to Higher Education.
Russell Group Universities
