Information about the format of the day will be sent to you via email in advance of the interview date. The interview is also your chance to find out more about the School Direct route into teaching, the Alliance and the University. The University of Winchester will send you more information about when and how you need to complete each of these checks if you accept our offer. You will also be required to complete an occupational health check to confirm that you are fit to teach. If you have spent time overseas in the last 5 years you may also be required to obtain criminal records checks from each of the countries you visited.

UCAS’ online events, live Q&As, social media engagement, and personal statement writing sessions have critically supported students as they make important decisions about their futures. UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service, is an independent charity, and the UK’s shared admissions service for higher education. We manage almost three million applications, from around 700,000 people each year, for full-time undergraduate courses at over 380 universities and colleges across the UK. A personal statement supports your application when applying to study to university or college.

Despite having the Wuhan Virus pandemic and Brexit the UK has achieved the milestone. However, now it is a great challenge to the UK’s Universities to provide the best support to this huge number of newcomers and help to get settled in the new environment and a new culture. On the further notes by the UCAS, there is a 17% rise in the non-EU students’ applications. This rise has indicated that the UK Student visa is now raising the popularity and the numbers may jump high in the upcoming years.

The A levels and BTECs that a student achieves at school/college will have a UCAS Tariff value which you can check on the UCAS website. It is a centralised service that students use to apply to university. Almost everyone who wants to study an undergraduate degree in the UK will make their application through UCAS. If you already meet or are expected to meet our entry requirements, and have demonstrated your passion and commitment to teaching in your application, you will be invited to attend an interview.

We will comment on individual mitigating circumstances in the student’s reference. Throughout the academic year, we host eight Aspire lectures at the college. These lectures are delivered by university lecturers/professors and cover as many different subject areas as possible.

This is not a bad thing as oversubscription is not in students’ best interests and higher education has always been a competitive process, but there is a need to ensure that the information and advice provided to students is mindful of this. Your support and contributions will enable us to inspire and support students across Liverpool in applying and gaining a place at Oxbridge, breaking down those barriers that might stop them from doing so. 100% of the trainees who have completed Aspire’s innovative school-based training programme have secured employment. Our School Direct programme is designed in partnership with the University of Winchester and carries the award of both Qualified Teacher Status and Post-Graduate Certificate of Education . We will look for evidence of a commitment to the teaching profession, an understanding of professional requirements, and an awareness of current educational issues in an application.

The rising figure shows the demand for British education in the international diaspora. Year 12 & Year 13 students are provided with a wide range of UCAS/university preparation activities. These include open and guest lectures, benelynk customer reviews trips, conferences and open days. Past students at our other colleges have been involved in the Sussex University Open Lecture Programme, Sutton Trust Summer Schools, Student Shadowing Schemes and University Masterclasses.
