University & Career Counselling

Our counselling partners provide additional, personalised support to students as they explore post-school options and prepare for university applications. This may include guidance on course selection, university research and application strategy.

All external counselling services are designed to be used alongside the school’s Careers & University Guidance (CUG) team, ensuring a coordinated and student-centred approach. In-school guidance remains the first point of contact, with third-party support offering added depth where appropriate.
